Step 1: Create a square canvas

I'm using the basing 2048 x 2048 px, but you can adjust the dimensions to your project's requirements. Pro Tip: Not sure how to pick a canvas size? Check out this short tutorial: https://youtu.be/209K7V09pEM


Step 2: Set up Symmetry

  1. Open the wrench icon menu, and select the Canvas section.

  2. Activate the drawing guide toggle and tap on Edit Drawing Guide.

Step 3: Draw your Procreate mandala!

Make sure Drawing assist is activated on your layer, and you're good to go!

Whatever you draw in one of the sections will be repeated in the other 7.
