About This Class

This is a follow-on class to my previous Fundamentals class.  In this class I'll take you through creating a 'Jungle Animal' themed pattern collection for your portfolio.  I'll be showing you some more advanced Adobe Illustrator skills along the way. 

Jungle themed patterns are not going anywhere soon.  I've just designed 10 illustrations/patterns for french company Auzou to go on an exciting new kids creative product, all themed around jungle animals.  I think it's vital, as a surface pattern designer, to have some Jungle inspired themes in your portfolio.  

Some of the topics I'll cover:

  • Gathering inspiration
  • Sketching ideas using an iPad with Procreate (you can use a sketchbook)
  • Creating icons using blob tool and shape builder
  • Design Layout
  • Repeat options (manually and using the pattern tool)
  • Coordinates
  • Puppet Warp & Global Edit Tools
  • Presentation of your collection

    • What you'll need:

  • Adobe Illustrator (preferably Adobe CC)
  • Sketch pad & pencil (or iPad Pro with Procreate)
  • Scanner and/or smart phone
  • Tablet (optional - but makes drawing in Illustrator easier and more intuitive)

    • Resources:

  • Jungle Animals Pinterest Board

    • Happy pattern making!
