Upcoming Presentation: Laura Coyle

We are thrilled to announce that Laura Coyle will be joining the Textile Design Lab community for a monthly live webinar event for Illustrator users! Her first live event is set for next Tuesday, July 16th at noon EDT.

“I am planning to use the first part of the hour to talk about how I use the Width Tool and variable Width Profiles in my work. After that, I’d love to take questions. If you have anything you’ve been wondering about or need some info on, please respond to this post. Some questions I can answer off the top of my head, but some might require a little more thought on my end, so it would be nice to know in advance how I can be of help.”

Laura has spent nearly 20 years as a freelance illustrator and is also an amazing Adobe Illustrator instructor (she runs illustratoring.com, check it out). Laura will be sharing her expertise in a free webinar for all Textile Design Lab members on July 16th at noon EDT.
