Blog Post 6

Final Blog Post!
Please write about your experience in the class.
This is NOT an official course evaluation.

You could consider answering some of the following:
What do you feel that you personally learned from the course?
What new knowledge or skills do you feel proudest about?
How do you think you have improved?
What did you work on in class that you are most interested in pursuing on your own?

Keep this post focused on yourself, critiques of the professor or course go in the official confidential evaluations.
This post helps me see what real effect the course has on people.

Still Having Illustrator Troubles?

If you are still struggling with using Adobe Illustrator you may find it helpful to review some recorded lectures that I produced last year for Introduction to Graphic Design and Illustration. They can be lengthy but they are helpful.
