Speedy Design Challenge
Imagine that you are a freelance textile designer working remotely from home. You arrive at your desk in the morning, open your inbox, and find an urgent request for a new concept! You have until the end of the day to design a completed pattern based upon the brief provided.
This is the premise behind our regular Speedy Design Challenges.
Check out the latest challenge here.
Recording Posted: Illustrator Live with Laura Coyle
In last week’s training Laura showed us how we can use the new Adobe Illustrator App. This can come in handy when our desktop computers are not behaving or if we are on the go!
You can watch the recording here.
Looking forward to it! If you have suggestions/questions for future sessions, please add them to this thread.
