A practical guide to becoming a pattern master

Tropical patterns look simple until you try to build a repeat that tiles cleanly and still feels alive.

This course walks you through motif drawing, layout, colour and seamless pattern construction so your tiles hold up on fabric and products.

Go from concept to finished files with specialised techniques that keep complex designs manageable, without skipping the technical steps that make a seamless pattern actually seamless.

Motifs, repeats and production-ready files

Learn the creative and technical sides of seamless pattern work so tiles print cleanly.

01

No equipment needed

No more spending hundreds on supplies, everything you need to create stunning patterns is just a tap away on your iPad.

02

Mistakes? What mistakes?

Experiment boldly. Undo any slip-up and play with colours and layers until every motif and repeat is exactly right.

03

Zoom for precision

Zoom in to perfect natural-looking foliage, wildlife and seamless repeats with a level of detail that's hard to match by hand.

FAQs

Find answers to common questions about this and other Twotap courses

No. We start from the very beginning and never assume you've drawn before. If you can hold an Apple Pencil and have Procreate on your iPad, you can follow along.

Any iPad from 2018 onward runs Procreate well. You don't need the newest model, a solid Apple Pencil, compatible iPad is enough.

Yes, Procreate works best with a pressure-sensitive Apple Pencil (1st Gen, 2nd Gen, or Pro). The basic USB-C Pencil is less ideal for line weight and opacity.

The videos total about 14 hours. Most Twotap students spend a bit longer drawing along, and that's the point. Lifetime access means you can go at your own pace. A lot of people fit this into about 30 minutes a day.

You can watch on any device with a browser, but you'll want your iPad open to draw along. Many students watch a step, pause, then paint, or use a second screen for the video.

You're not alone. Join the private Twotap community on Facebook to ask questions and share progress, students and our team are active there. You can also email support@twotap.art anytime.
