Illustrator Brushes!

http://www.sparked.biz/meetup/2012.png

Welcome Back!

For our 1st Meetup of the year we thought to continue the Illustrator momentum and play with pattern brushes! One of the programs most useful features to add repetitive patterns to vector art without having to manually draw the repeat. We received many questions from the last Meetup about pattern brushes and this is one of our most popular design sessions.

In this Meetup you will learn:

The brush palette Differences between the brushes How to create your own brush Demonstrate how to manage brush corner tiles Use key color to re-color pattern brushes
Discuss the Appearance Palette
We'll meet at:

1-3 pm

Parsons the New School for Design

55 West 13th St

Arnhold Hall, 3rd fl

Room i304 (look for signs leading to the studio)

*Please remember to bring a picture ID and your name needs to be on the list for building security!

Looking forward to see everyone! Feel free to bring laptops or take notes and these techniques are supported by early versions of Illustrator. Most importantly, please share your brush tips and tricks!

We have February's Meetup planned and will announce shortly.
