Skillshare Class: Flourished Layouts

 

This project-based class is a guided demonstration of a flourished calligraphy layout using an iPad Pro and Procreate. The demonstration is start-to-finish, and filled with my commentary every step of the way. I show you how I set up my document, make a rough pencil sketch, refine my sketches, draw in flourishes, "ink" it with a calligraphy brush, polish the final design, and recolor it.

This class is very relaxed. I wanted it to reflect the actual design process of a professional calligrapher creating a polished design, from sketch through final artwork. I show all of my work, leaving nothing out, so you can watch me make every stroke...and erase every mistake.

 
 

➤  Prerequisites

This class is for students who already have some experience with Procreate lettering. If you need to learn the ropes first, start with my comprehensive beginner's class: Mastering iPad Lettering with Procreate 4.

➤  Downloadables

I've included the Procreate calligraphy flourishing brush and guide sheet that I use, as well as the layered Photoshop file of my finished design. These are available to students as free downloads in the Projects & Resources tab.
