Would you like to help your creativity soar, to speed up your work flow, and to make your artwork shine with your own personal style? If you would love to add these things to your design work, wait until you see what Adobe Capture can do!

In this class, we will gather texture images from the indoors and outdoors. No more need to purchase textures online, wondering if they are safe to use for licensing work, create your own textures for backgrounds, with your very own style.

Not only can textures be captured, but also images of real natural elements, such as dried flowers. Even learn how to capture images from real life or photos in your camera roll. These images can become incredible motifs for your design work.

Do you struggle with converting your drawings, sketches, or digitally drawn images from raster to a vector format? Adobe Capture makes it a snap and speeds up your work flow exponentially. With tons of controls and adjustments, allowing you to get the best image for your own style.

Create unique color palettes from the world immediately around you, or from photos of your adventures. Adjust and fine tune the colors, or let the app suggest new colors for you. Get RGB and CMYK codes as well.

And finally, we will take a look at creating brushes with captures. Raster brushes and vector brushes! Yet another way to add your own custom touch to your design work.

Adobe Capture does all of this and so much more from a smart phone or tablet. But the absolute greatest part about this app is how it connects to your Adobe Creative Cloud products, like Adobe Illustrator and Adobe Photoshop. The things you will learn in this class will blow your mind and fling open the doors of your creativity! Go and download the app and let’s have fun creating!
