This class breaks down the foundations of surface pattern design, tracing the path from a hand-drawn sketch to a finished, licensable repeating pattern. The instructor shares her own process for developing designs that end up on fabric, gift wrap, and other licensed products, working primarily in Adobe Illustrator.
Beginners who want to move from sketching to a genuine surface-design workflow, and anyone dreaming of becoming a professional surface pattern designer.
In this class I’m going to take you through the fundamentals of surface pattern design, the way I do it. There are many Surface Design classes on Skillshare, but in this class you'll discover my secrets of how I go about creating patterns that go on to be licensed for use on fabric, gift wrap and a whole range of products. My goal is to help you achieve your dreams of becoming a surface pattern designer.
