Do you want to see your art on products? Wallpaper, postcards, fabrics? Most illustrations and designs start their journey as a rough sketch on paper. Inspiration can hit you from anywhere, on the go while traveling, in a coffee shop, or in your garden in summer. But on this journey from sketch to final product, you need to first digitize your sketch, and nothing makes this process easier than working on the iPad.

In this class, I will show you how you can easily convert drawings to vector art with vectorizing or the pencil tool on the iPad. Adobe Illustrator for Ipad opens up possibilities that make transferring a hand drawing into a vector graphic really quick and easy. And you can practically do this step of your work on the couch. 

You will look over my shoulder as I transform a hand drawing into a vector drawing on the iPad and create a few simple sketches as design elements. For the final project, we'll create a fabric repeat, though with the skills learned in the class, you can design for any product you can think of. Using this smart workflow you can create a library of design elements for your purposes, be it for branding, wall art, or surface pattern design.
