Illustrate Patterns with Julia Rothman




Screen Shot 2015-07-23 at 11.34.09 AM

Julia Rothman is always creating something magical- be it wallpaper with hand drawn motifs, books to guide you as you roam about observing life, or environments for creation, where up-and-comers and experienced colleagues can share tips and tools to push each other forward. It’s inspiring to watch her build, nourish and support the illustration community.

Rothman’s latest collaboration runs along the same lines and is an exciting opportunity for anyone looking to dip their toes in the world of surface design. Together with Skillshare, she’s created an online course to teach the technical ins and outs of pattern making. I highly recommend it for artists at any level who want to jump right in and start making again. Click here to sign up and keep learning!

 

Learn to Communicate with Patterns

Without color, pattern or texture, where would we be? In a black and white world, void of visuals (perhaps). Learning to use these elements to communicate a message is a skill Brad Woodward of Brave the Woods has honed rather successfully. In his recent Skillshare class, he’s opening the door to his studio to share some tricks of the trade. Learn how to convey moods, design for editorial and experiment illustratively.
