We are really pleased to showcase more of the beautiful work from our very talented Module 1 students of ‘The Art and Business of Surface Pattern Design (the e-course) who took the course in August 2013. Here are more of our fantastic students & the work they have created over the 5 weeks in class.
“The Art and Business of Surface Pattern Design has inspired me immensely. My style has developed and I am now confident in working free hand in Illustrator. The daily blogs and Facebook page have been a true inspiration and it is fantastic to see how different everyone’s work is. Bring on Module 2 + 3 and maybe even 4!” – Lucy Davison
” This course has been an invaluable experience because it has helped me to redefine my process, improve my technique and has introduced me to a fantastic network of inspiring and supportive artists. I can’t wait for the next module!” – Peta Hedemann
“At last thanks to this course I have discovered a way of “channelling” my artistic creativity and combining it my love of technology, with the possibility of actually making some money from it! I loved the way this hugely fun but challenging course has “held my hand” throughout both the creative process and the business side, enabling my confidence to grow massively.” – Petica Watson
“From basic drawing and sketching tips to technical tutorials, this class guided me through the creative process behind the surface pattern design business. It also empowered me to go out and look for inspiration and keep myself positive and creative.” – Elba Valverde
“For me, the most important and helpful part of the course has been looking at the different ways to develop motifs for surface pattern designs. The sections on finding inspiration and mark making were particularly inspiring to me, and I now feel so much more comfortable using hand-generated work in my designs, rather than purely computer-generated elements.” – Louise Leake
“The most powerful things I learned from this course were how to create a technical repeat and how important mood boards are and how to create them.” – Jamie Chapin
“I have really loved the course and it has been an amazing experience learning to create patterns. I feel like I have learned so much and grown as an artist.” – Kathryn Cole
“Before this class, I used to create all my motifs on the computer. By going back to the basics and drawing motifs by hand, I finally feel like my true style is starting to come through in my work. Thank you for such an amazing and inspiring course!” – Emma Williams
“I found this course loaded with lots of useful and practical tips and information to prepare me to pursue my dream as a surface pattern designer. I particularly like the Bonus Technical Workshops which are highly practical and hands on.” – May Leong
“The course has not only propelled inspiration for paintings and designs and offered much needed technical help with software programs, it also has given me an invaluable determination to progress in my art and design career.” – Anna Carla
“The Art and Business of Surface Pattern Design has opened my eyes to the beauty that surrounds me everyday, as well as to the possibilities that of a creative future that nourishes my soul. I’ve enjoyed every minute of it.” – Carolyn Greifeld
