Hi, this is Dorotha and Jeanette coming to you from the Graphic Design class at Gallery 37. This week we critiqued each other's city stickers. Then we jumped into a new lesson on learning how to create patterns. It may seem easy but there are many steps that are taken to come up with a cool pattern. Patterns are repetition of images or shapes (organic/geometric). We see patterns in our every day lives, rather it may be on an item of clothing, in our habits, or just looking at a building. We used Illustrator to design a compositional element then tweaked with it to produce our pattern. We started our patterns off with geometric shapes but will soon move into organic shapes.
