Ink & Watercolor Botanicals on Your iPad in Procreate + FREE Watercolor Brushes

Learn to create stunning ink and watercolor botanical illustrations in this comprehensive course! I'll guide you through my entire creative process, from finding the perfect reference images to crafting a beautifully framed quote illustration.

You'll master essential skills including:

• Freehand drawing techniques: Develop confident lines and add realistic shadow and depth to your botanical art.
• Tracing for ink illustrations: Learn how to effectively trace photographs of plants to create detailed ink drawings.
• Image sourcing: Discover where to find free images for personal and commercial use – perfect for your projects!
• Watercolor painting in Procreate: Explore the power of digital watercolor with step-by-step instructions.

We'll focus on a practical project: transforming an ink drawing into a framed quote illustration. Then, you'll learn to add vibrant color using realistic multi-shade watercolor effects. Finally, create a beautiful botanical menagerie – a collection of flowers, leaves, and grasses – ideal for framing text like quotes, birth announcements, or invitations.

As a bonus, I'll share my custom watercolor brushes and watercolor texture paper as a free download! These resources will help you achieve professional-looking ink and watercolor illustrations. I'll also demonstrate how to use these brushes to enhance your artwork.

All you need to participate is an iPad and a stylus. While I prefer the Apple Pencil due to its pressure sensitivity, any stylus will work – even your finger!
