In this class, Extraordinary Brushes, you will be guided step-by-step through the process of producing an intricate repeating fuchsia pattern design, from initial brush creation and composition of the design to creation of the final pattern tile. And as a special UNIQUE BONUS, we will be finishing using the Adobe Textile Designer in Photoshop to fully explore THE COLORWAYS PANEL and the exciting possibilities it offers! In this class, you will learn how to thoroughly use the potential of Adobe Illustrator custom brushes. Our brushes will include leaves, petals and stems that can be manipulated infinitely, and it will look like you created hundreds of brushes, when in reality you are producing just a small number of them. These brushes are an investment: they can be added to other brush sets in the future, and you can use them to make many more designs than the one you create today! Using these extraordinary brushes in layers, you can see the design truly materialize into a charming botanical composition.
This Extraordinary Brushes class is tailored towards designers with some knowledge of Adobe Illustrator and basic brush creation who want to learn additional techniques, though basic brush construction is covered.

If you are the type of artist who likes to start your projects by drawing to roughly plan your project, you’ll also need some very basic tools like plain paper and a pencil and phone or scanner to get your work into the computer. I’m pumped to show you how to sprout your fuchsia design, so let’s get you started! The verbal guidance and demonstrations will help you learn all the necessary core skills that can be applied to so many of your future designs. Whether you are new to surface pattern design, or an accomplished designer, you are sure to learn something new. The beauty of this course is you can pick JUST the lessons you need, so you can skip concepts you have learned previously. In this class we will go through specific concepts in 11 lessons that cover: You will get the bonus of… More info - https://www.skillshare.com/classes/Extraordinary-Illustrator-Brushes-for-Pattern-Design-Colored-Using-Adobe-Textile-Designer/1480608024
