Hello, my friends! Thank you for your interest in this class which is part of my latest series. This class will focus on enriching the patterns we have learned to create in the Flip Flop Techniques for Intricate Pattern Design, and the S-Curve, Ogee and Quatrefoil Exploration class. In those classes, we used a live transformation template which works much like the Pattern Maker tool in Illustrator, but with the added bonus of the ability to reflect (hence the “Flip-Flop”). In this class, I assume you have some knowledge of pattern-making, have completed the template, and want to learn additional techniques. We will be talking about both the design and technical aspects of reflected repeats and we will experiment with structures and layout techniques that help add depth and interest to our designs. Throughout, I like to teach efficiency as well, so that is tied into each of the lessons in some way. I’ll be demonstrating use of the Appearance Panel, and effects using transformation and live transformation, and much more. This class is based in Adobe Illustrator, but many of the concepts could be applied to Affinity Designer or Procreate with their similar function. We also work between Illustrator and Photoshop to add some of the textures and foil effects.
