Welcome to “Surface Pattern Design: Refining Patterns & Portfolio Building”, a course dedicated to pattern designers of all levels, irrespective of your preferred design software (Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop, Affinity Designer, Procreate, traditional media).

WHAT YOU WILL NEED

All I recommend is a notebook and a cup of tea or coffee 🙂 The course is structured into 4 segments and I recommend you write down actionable steps and goals for each of those segments:

1. composition
2. color
3. interest
4. portoflio

You will need your favorite design program: Procreate, Photoshop, Illustrator, or Affinity. This course is not software-specific, however, I am giving a few extra bonus tips for Affinity users in some lessons.
