I’ll show you how I paint, scan and digitally edit my watercolour stripes to transform them into beautiful seamless patterns like this one below!

In this class you will learn

• The best way to paint stripes for easy editing
• How to scan your work and quickly remove the paper background
• How to set up Photoshop actions to automate the process
• Easy steps for creating perfectly seamless stripes
• Tips for building out a varied pattern tile
• How to correctly reduce image size for different applications
• Checking for and fixing those dreaded white lines that sometimes appear on the seams!

I LOVE speeding up and simplifying processes so I’ll be sharing lots of my shortcuts and actions along the way including how to set up an action to remove your paper background with one click!

By the end of this class you’ll be able to get started painting and creating your own watercolour stripe patterns which you can sell on products in your print on demand stores, add to existing pattern collections or build out your licensing portfolio with some solid evergreen designs!
