Digital Textile & Surface Pattern Design

Two Day Workshop

New for 2019 this course is an introduction to using Photoshop to explore textile and surface pattern ideas through to a finished printable digital format.

Design your own beautiful and creative patterns from any source of inspiration and turn it into a document that you will be able to get ready for printing onto any surface or textile.

The course content covers, but is not limited to:

  • Creating documents
  • Saving documents in preparation for printing
  • Creating shapes
  • Using the colour tool
  • Transformation of shapes
  • Layer transparency
  • Layer masks
  • Finalising designs
  • Defining patterns for fills

Images will be provided to work from during the course. Please bring a notebook and pen and a USB stick to save your work on after the course.
