Create a cohesive illustration + pattern set and see your work shine!
In this hands-on Art Maker’s Club tutorial, we’re taking your artwork one step further, by helping you create a polished mini collection of your own. Inspired by the breezy charm of coastal summer days, you’ll learn how to draw a hero illustration and a simple repeating pattern that feel like they truly belong together—perfect for building your portfolio or just having fun.
We’ll explore how to unify your pieces using color, style, and layout—and then use real-world Procreate mockups to bring your work to life on sketchbook pages, postcards, and notebook covers.
You’ll start with a provided lobster sketch as the foundation for your illustration, with plenty of room to make it your own.
To help you present your work like a pro, you’ll get six ready-to-use mockup templates you can use right in Procreate—featuring sketchbook pages, postcards, and notebook covers. Just drop in your artwork, adjust colors, and explore different layout options with ease.
As a special gift for Art Maker’s Club members, you’ll get FREE early access to my brand-new Ceramic Glaze brush set, before it officially launches on bardotbrush.com! This set of 18 textured, painterly brushes is inspired by hand-painted ceramics and the sun-drenched charm of coastal Italy. We’ll use them in the tutorial to add texture, color, and a handcrafted feel to our artwork.
