illustration series
When you think of someone drawing something, do you see them typing away at the keyboard? No—how about leaned over a pad and pen. The iPad is a natural tool for illustration. Best of all you can be anywhere when inspiration strikes. Create logos, clipart, technical drawings, business diagrams, charts and graphics. Join us!

Getting Started with the Tools
Start with the basics. Learn about Bézier curves and control points. Create basic shapes. Adjust object properties such as line stroke, fill, color and opacity. You will use these skills everytime you work with vector graphics.

 

Creating Complexity from Simple Shapes
Time is precious. Don’t waste it manually creating every shape. Turn simple objects into complex ones. Use Union, Intersect, and Subtraction path algorithms to create unique objects. Let Move, Scale, and Rotation operations save you time!

Working with Type
We use text to communicate. The workshop is about extending your control over the text in your illustration. Learn to import fonts into your iPad to use in your drawings. Customize letter shapes and control your text flow by binding it to a custom path.

 

Order, Selections and Layers
As your drawing increases in complexity, the amount of information that you can control grows as well. Effectively managing and controling that data becomes paramount. You will learn techniques that allow you to get to and control your illustration.
