Monoline Illustration is a great technique for creating really modern, minimalistic illustrations that can be used for a wide variety of applications. Because they are vector, they can easily be used for logos, branding, editorial, web, icons, and just about any purpose you might have for an illustration. Not to mention they are easy to create once you understand the basics. You definitely do not need a lot of drawing experience!

In this class I will be showing you my process from references images, to finding inspiration, sketching, and finally, vectorizing the art in Adobe Illustrator.

This class is aimed for Intermediate users of Adobe Illustrator, but even beginners may be able to follow along as I do not use many tools in the software. However, there is a lot to learn in the idea and sketch phase as well!

So, if this class sounds interesting to you, click play, and I'll see you in class!
