About This Class

This class is a comprehensive guide on how to make a repeat pattern. Maja will show you her workflow and the techniques that she uses and have developed. You will learn all of the basics including inspiration and ideas, sketching techniques, how to use your iPad to vectorise your sketch and finally how to make the repeat in Adobe Illustrator. On top of all of the basics, Maja will also give you her tips on how to prevent getting stuck in the creative process and how she lets the pattern develop as she creates. 

NOTE: Since this class was released Adobe has stopped to update the app Adobe Draw - as their new app Adobe Fresco is released. Fresco basically bring you all of the features of Adobe Draw and then some. I've published a class here on Skillshare that takes you through the workflow of sketching motives in Adobe Fresco, that you could have a look at instead of lesson 5 in this class (Draw on the iPad in Adobe Draw), you'll find it here: https://skl.sh/30ZMQXf

If you ever had the feeling of getting stuck in the creative process of making patterns, if you can recognise being afraid of a blank paper or if you think that it’s complicated and frustrating to make repeat patterns - then this class is for you.
