About This Class

Are you also curious about how professional illustrators create their illustrations?
What software do they use and what tools do they use?
How do they use reference artwork?
What techniques are used in the process and what is the final output like?

Perhaps you would like to know if you too can create your own value like these illustrators?

The word "illustration" comes from the Latin word "illustrio", meaning "to illuminate", which means that illustration can make the meaning of words clearer and more lively. Illumination - this is where the combination of illustration and commerce can bring out the best in a product in a way that words cannot, through the artistry of illustration, which has now long outlived its status as a 'text illuminator'.
