What You Will Learn?

  • In this class, I cover everything you need to know about duplicating and repeating objects, including how to use the Radial, Grid, and Mirror repeat tools, and a deep dive into the Rotate and Reflect tools..
  • I have a class called Surface Design In Adobe Illustrator: A Beginner's Guide to Pattern Building, and in that class, I go over all of the essential tools that I regularly use to make patterns and illustrations within Illustrator. As time has gone by, however, I have noticed little nuggets of Illustrator know-how, if you will, whether it’s a tool or feature that I forgot to cover or something new and valuable that I’ve learned and implemented into my practice since making the class. This has inspired me to start making bite-sized classes on all of those missing bits of Illustrator knowledge. This is the first of those mini-classes..
  • All of that said, some familiarity with Illustrator is recommended for this class, and A Beginner's Guide to Pattern Building is a great class to start with, even if you’re not interested in making patterns. So if you are brand new to Illustrator, I recommend taking that class first..
