Get started with Adobe Illustrator over your lunch break. In this short introductory course, I will cover the bare basics of how to use Illustrator. We will learn how to create and set up a new document and how to set up your artboards. I will show you the tools you use to draw lines and curves, transform, duplicate, and group your lines and curves. I will explain how to create strokes with variable width and transform your outline paths into shapes. We will learn how to use the Ellipse tool, the Rectangle tool, and the Pencil tool to speed up and ease your creative process and show you how to use the Color Themes panel and apply gradients to your work. I will teach you how to use the Recolor tool to your advantage, then concludes with how to export your work. Let’s get started!
