The full version of Adobe Illustrator CS6 or the free 30-day trial version of it can be found at. You will need to have Adobe Illustrator version CS4 or higher already downloaded on this laptop for the start of class. All students must be able to bring a laptop to each class (Mac preferred). Drawing and painting realistically is encouraged but it’s not necessary. No prior experience with Illustrator is required for this class. In class we focus on gesture, emotion, mark making, and balance.
