This class for surface pattern designers, will have you creating cool textures for your surface pattern designs with absolute ease. Learn how to create textures  for your designs both from taking photos of the world around you and with art supplies.

You will only need:

• your phone
• Adobe Illustrator
• some paper 
• your favourite art supplies

Once you've created your textures, we will learn how to add them to your surface pattern design motifs using a clipping mask in Adobe Illustrator.

Once you've taken this class, you will be able to explore the many different ways you can add textures into your surface pattern designs.

At the end of the class you will be able to download and try out some of my own vector textures.'
