Step 1: Learn to Sketch
Learn to sketch festive elements like some baubles and mince pies using basic shapes and clever tricks to help you. You'll learn to understand how to break down ideas to translate them into drawings that will fill in your pattern.
Step 2: Let's Add Some Colour
Once we have the outlines for our elements, it's time for colour. You'll learn to use digital brushes for colouring and blending, while also learning to use layers and masks to help you keep manage your progress and keep everything editable.
Step 3: Let's Build the Pattern
At this stage, you'll learn to create a fun and balanced composition using a diamond repeat template. Once the template is complete I'll teach you how to make your elements repeat to create a seamless pattern block!
Step 4: Export and Use Your Pattern
Whooop, your pattern is ready to export! You’ll learn how to prepare it as a print ready file and explore different ways and places to get it printed as wrapping paper and make your Christmas gifts extra special!
- The session is taught in person, with a live demonstration projected onto the wall so you can follow along step by step, in real time.
- There’ll be plenty of opportunity to ask questions, get individual feedback and work at your own pace.
- Refreshments (tea and biscuits) are included in your booking.
Please note: Public dates for this class require at least 2 guests to run. In the unlikely event that we don't reach this number, we may cancel the session; if that happens, we'll inform you and let you choose between a refund or reschedule, so please watch your email/SMS one day prior to the class.

Your teacher
Hi, I am a Lake District-based illustrator with 10 years of experience working alongside clients like Microsoft, Pantene and Arla, but my favourite clients will always be small businesses and individuals. I originally founded my business in London but chose to move to the countryside to have a family and harness a slower rhythm to be able to focus on personal projects.My goal as a professional has always been to help others bring stories and ideas to life through engaging, narrative-led illustration. Today I am also branching out into education to share what I love.If you are looking to learn how to draw, join me in my workshop series Draw With Patterns where we'll explore various themes for digital drawing on an iPad using Procreate!
