Hello everyone! For my patterns, I chose to do a more tropical-inspired theme.

Here is my inspiration board and color palette: Tropical Patterns - image 1 - student project

The sketches (my scanner isn't that good, but I was able to work from them): Tropical Patterns - image 2 - student project

And then here are some of the pattern motifs -- I did not save an image of them after I finished creating them, but here is a small, zoomed in version of the "bouquet" pattern.

And, lastly, here are the patterns I created and some of the different color options!

Overall, I really enjoyed this class and I learned so much from it!

I currently am enrolled in art school, and we had a Digital Illustration course but it did not go nearly into as much detail -- I wish I had learned some of the tools and shortcuts sooner (especially the smooth tool)!

For my first set of illustrator patterns, I am pretty happy with the results. Before this class, I was honestly scared of illustrator but now I feel like I have a decent understanding of the program.
