In this class we will cover:
Creativity and brainstorming methods to get inspired
Things to have in mind when sketching the assets that will form the base of your pattern
How to digitize hand scanned elements to be used in Photoshop
We'll create color palettes and I'll show you various tools that will help us get out of our color comfort zone.
How to add color to your sketches and drawings. This is very useful as it is not only applicable to creating conversational patterns but for any type of black and white illustrations.
The fundamentals of pattern theory. I'm a big believer that having a solid foundation is important for your growth as a designer.
My methodology for creating the repetition on each side of the canvas and you'll have the chance to practice the fundamentals whilst creating simple patterns. Simple patterns can be a great compliment for when designing collections and if you use different assets to cover the different exercises, you'll have a mini collection of 6 when finishing the "Practicing the fundamentals lesson".
