For illustrators, surface designers, artists and graphic designers, Adobe Illustrator is one of the best tools to have in your toolbelt! Why? As a vector-based program, the artwork can be scaled indefinitely without losing quality because it’s made up of points. And now that it is available as an iPad app, you can create vector artwork by drawing directly on the iPad making it fun and easy.

Join surface designer, Genna Blackburn, as she walks you through each essential tool in Adobe Illustrator for iPad. This class is a quick start guide so the most popular tools and panels are covered first so you can jump in right away! Then, learn when to use each tool (and pick up extra tips & tricks along the way) while you create a bird illustration with Genna.

In this class, you’ll learn how to:

Navigate panels
Import a pre-made sketch
Draw with the pen tool, pencil tool and blob brush tool
Add swatches to the color palette using the eyedropper tool
Use the vectorize feature
Apply each tool PLUS extra tips & tricks while illustrating a bird
Export your drawing

This class is for complete beginners who just want to dabble and create, as well as the professional who wants to add Adobe Illustrator for iPad to your toolkit. You can use the sketch provided to draw on top of so you can focus on learning the program, or create your own sketch to work from. No prior knowledge of Adobe Illustrator is required.

The app is a much simpler version of the desktop program, but the ability to draw directly on the iPad with the Apple pencil makes it a great companion to the desktop version.
