What Makes this Class Different?
Most pattern design courses dive straight into advanced details, but often overlook the real challenge: getting comfortable with the software itself. In my Affinity Designer Surface Pattern Design Masterclass, we start with the basics that matter most—learning how to draw with vectors and how to arrange patterns with flow and strong composition.
After working with over 90,000 students, I’ve noticed the same struggles pop up time and again: if the design’s structure isn’t solid, no amount of tweaking will fix it.
That’s why this course is specifically built to address those foundational issues first, so you can confidently create patterns from the ground up. My unique templates simplify this process completely!
The goal isn’t to polish everything at the start—it’s to set up a strong framework that gives you a solid base for all your future projects. I'll be there to guide and support you through every step.
I've designed and paced everything to guide you from uncertainty to clarity with confidence!
