After a trip to Italy, where I saw stunning ancient Roman mosaics, it occurred to me that there was no tool which allowed users to draw their own mosaic designs digitally. So, I set about making this set of authentic mosaic tile brushes and patterns. And now, after receiving so many of your requests for a Procreate pattern and brush conversion, the wait is over – you can now make Procreate mosaic art!
In this pack I’ve captured the irregular, chipped edges of the original Roman source material (c. 4th century AD), allowing Procreate artists to create stunning designs and illustrations with a sense of antiquity. However, the pack isn’t just for adding a vintage look – as you’ll see from the screen-shots, these vintage Procreate brushes and Procreate pattern brushes are ideal for adding a unique twist to contemporary designs too.
To test the pack I studied real mosaics and put the Procreate brushes through their paces by re-creating a real Roman design – the bear image screen-shot.
Take a look at these handy speed drawing videos HERE and HERE and see how easy the pack is to use!
The pack contains all of these fantastic components:
- A Thorough Instruction Manual
A very thorough guide on how to load, apply and use the brushes and patterns is supplied. This also includes a step-by-step guide, explaining my methodology for creating mosaics. With helpful screen-shots guiding you through.
- Mosaic Tile Brushes
A variety of mosaic tile Procreate pattern brushes, all sourced from genuine 1600+ year old material.
Although you don’t need an Apple Pencil to use most of the pack, there are a number of pressure sensitive Procreate brushes which won’t work fully without one.
- Mosaic Pattern Brushes
A variety of mosaic tile Procreate patterns, each saved in the grain of a Procreate pattern brush. These seamless, repeat patterns are perfect for backgrounds or for flooding areas with tiles quickly.
- Layered Mosaic Pattern Brushes
Each pattern design is supplied as multiple Procreate pattern brushes. This allows the user to flood areas quickly, choosing a different color for each part of the pattern and saving you time! Some of the designs also make great borders – as seen in the screen-shots.
- Texture Overlay Brushes
2 Stone textures and 2 grunge overlay texture brushes – use these to flood areas quickly and add age and authenticity to your designs. The featured textures are seamless, so you can fill any sized area.
- Mosaic Adjustment Brushes
Made for creating and editing unusual shaped tiles and drawing lines of tiles that include small curves and odd angles.
- A Quick Reference Guide
This will help you quickly find the right tool for the task in hand.

Great brushes, patterns and textures. They were relatively easy for a novice like me to get into procreate, thanks to the detailed instructions. I would highly recommend them to anyone wanting to create mosaic designs or just make fauxsaics. My struggle is learning more about procreate so I can use these brushes to better effect. I think they are going to help me enormously with designing mosaic projects.
