Lettering and illustration in Procreate: create ornamental compositions step by step

“You've reached the end of the course. Thank you so much for choosing me as your teacher. It's been an honor to share this time and space with you. I hope you've learned many new things. Now it's your time to complete your course project. Here's an example of how I'd like to see your project progress: The mood board Gather the phrase, the base images and the color palette into a mood board.

The lettering sketch Sketch the lettering on paper. Start by tracing the guidelines and try creating different organisms with the same phrase until you get the one you like best. The elements Define which elements you are going to integrate into your composition and begin placing them around the lettering. Develop lettering Transfer the sketch to the iPad and trace the letters in Procreate. Use Procreate's guides and experiment with different brushes for lettering. Develop the illustration Work on your illustration in different layers, keeping the levels in mind in your composition. Also, add details to your illustration using Clipping Masks. The shadows Add shadows where there is an overlap of elements. Details and miscellany Incorporate details and miscellaneous elements into your project to fill in empty spaces and add a smaller scale to the composition. When you're working on your project, do something that truly excites you, something that showcases the things you love. That way, the whole process will be easier, and you'll be able to create something unique. Don't forget to upload your project to the forum. I'll be there to provide feedback as soon as possible. While you wait, I invite you to exchange ideas and advice with the rest of your colleagues. See you!”
