Beginner Level
In this class, we will walk through the basics of learning graphic design on Adobe Illustrator. You will learn what Illustrator is and is not used for, how to create your first graphic design drawings using a variety of the most popular tools on the software, and learn all about creating a brand. I am with students 100% of the way, and build time into my lessons for students with different paces. I am more than happy to reiterate topics as needed.
