Textured brushes turn vector designs from flat to tactile, making digital work feel personal without sacrificing scalability. This class teaches you to craft custom brushes from hand-made textures, turning photography or painting into high-quality vector brushes that make your designs unique. By the end, you'll have endless texture possibilities at your fingertips, ready to layer into any vector project. The result is work that reads as human-made in a world of templates.
For this class we’re going to be exploring brushes in Adobe Illustrator. I’ll show you how to make hand crafted textures, turn them into high quality vector brushes and apply them to your artwork. These brushes are great at making your vector designs feel a little more hand done while still keeping your artwork completely vector, and can really take your designs to the next level. By the end of the class, you’ll be able to create custom brushes with endless texture possibilities that will make your work completely unique.
To launch the class, I’ll be running a contest from March 10-24th where I’ll be giving away a brush pack I created that has 7 awesome vector texture brushes. I’ll randomly select 3 students to win my brush pack and the grand prize winner will also receive a year of premium membership to Skillshare. So how do you enter? All you have to do is post a completed class project on Skillshare before March 25th and you’re in!
