This is the second class in a series called: Illustrator for Pattern Design.
It’s perfect for the beginner student, as well as anyone who loves geometrics.
I start with setting up a set of Guides, which are extremely useful for precise geometric patterns.
I will be covering various tools and techniques in Illustrator, but here are some of the
things I'll be covering specifically:
Creating a Grid and Converting to Guides
Rotate and Reflect Tools
Creating a Pattern Swatch Tile
Adobe Color Themes
Recolor Artwork Tool
and MORE
Please feel free to post any questions you may have, as I will check the discussion
area on a regular basis.
Also, I'm including a template for the Final Project, that you may or may not want to use.
I do encourage you to share your work, as seeing different students' variations of the same pattern is really exciting.
