In this class students will learn how to use basic Adobe Illustrator tools to create cute little characters. This class is great for beginners wanting to learn more about the tools in Adobe illustrator. After creating your cute character, you will be able to apply many of the skills learned to create your own unique art in Adobe illustrator. All that is required is access to Adobe Illustrator CC. I will be using version 2020.

This class will begin by teaching you how to use basic shapes to build up a cute little face. You will then begin to customize your character using Illustrator tools such as warp, pathfinder, and shape builder.

We will start by creating the head by warping an ellipse tool. Then we will start to craft the ears by learning about the pathfinder tool.

Once the head and neck are done, we’ll bring your character to life by creating a cute face. I will show you a couple of different eye expressions as well as different mouth shapes.

We’ll then move onto creating some unique hairstyles that fit your character’s personality.

We will then finish with the body, creating some fun clothing for your character.

As a bonus lesson I will show you how to create a character kit so that you can create as many little people as you would like.
