FAQs
Can I take this workshop on my iPad?
Unfortunately no. While the iPad app is pretty robust, it will be completely different from what I show you on the desktop version. You can download a free trial on the Adobe website.
Why won't you teach this in other applications like Inkscape?
My nearly 27 years of graphic design experience is with Adobe Illustrator. I teach what I know and am comfortable with. That being said, you can probably apply some things I teach you, but the interface will be different. However, I cannot guarantee as I am not familiar with other applications that are for vector design. Download a free trial of Adobe Illustrator here.
