As you progress through your days of early pattern making, it is easy to look back and see just how simple your first designs truly were. The beginning of learning Adobe Illustrator can be overwhelming. It is a ton of work to just make the pattern in the program, let alone think of how to make it stand out or be unique. But now that you are gaining more confidence with the program, you can clearly see that your patterns need to move to the next level. If this is you, this class is the perfect place! Your brain is telling you it is time to get creative and really use the tools in Adobe Illustrator. Oddly enough these tools are basic, but with a few tips and tricks, they can be used to their full advantage. Watch how your patterns become more detailed, elevated, and dynamic. In this class, we are going to take a basic star shape and instead of allowing the program to make the shape for us, use the creative tools in Adobe Illustrator to design a unique, one-of-a-kind, completely-you pattern that is far from beginner. While we will be focusing on one basic shape for this class, imagine how you can use these tools with your own designs and motifs!
