Illustration by Design: A Guide to Elevating your Drawing Skills

A great illustration is an amazing thing.

It can help us feel the emotions, simplify complex ideas and illuminate our thoughts. What makes a good illustration? Design thinking!

This class will teach you how to identify your creative goals, create symbolism, and evoke stronger feelings through your drawings by using a few principles from the worlds of design.

These are the topics that we will be covering:

• Design Thinking
• The Power of Connecting Illustration & Design
• The Origins of the Modern Illustrator
• Gathering great references
• Make Strong Compositions
• Use symbolism to create stronger visuals

This class requires a pencil and paper. I am using Clip Studio Paint to provide visual clarity.
