Design Christmas Collections in Procreate and Photoshop

Welcome to Design Christmas Collections in Procreate and Photoshop!

Are you looking to getting into Art Licensing? It's a great idea to add Christmas designs to your portfolio as Christmas is the biggest occasion companies are constantly buying art for! In this class I will take you step by step through the process of designing a small Christmas collection together. You will learn everything from the different xmas themes, how to plan out your collection and get the most out of your ideas as well as see a glimpse into my personal design process in Procreate and Photoshop. The best part of this class is you can easily translate what you learn to create varied other collections for other occasions such as Birthday, Easter, Fall, or Everyday etc. I really hope you'll join me in class :)
