Who is this class for?
This class is great for illustrators, hobbyists and surface pattern designers who are just starting out.
This is an intermediate to advanced level class primarily because it requires some sketching skill and a steady hand. However, don’t be discouraged to take it if you’re a beginner! I have included some free practice work sheets which are specially designed for beginners to practice and improve hand control! These are great exercises even if you’re not a beginner as you can use them to warm up before you start.
By the end of this class you will have a beautiful Indian floral pattern which you would’ve created from scratch and a good knowledge of the initial design development stages of creating a floral pattern.
