Explore drawing with the Pen Tool in Adobe Illustrator

Embrace the versatility of the pen tool in Adobe Illustrator with ease. Learn to confidently navigate anchor points and direction handles, elevating your illustration skills effortlessly.

Hi, I’m Tammy and I’m a Surface Designer based in Brisbane, Australia.

As a digital artist, mastering the pen tool is essential for creating vector artwork. While it may seem daunting at first, I can assure you that with practice and dedication, you'll become proficient in drawing and manipulating your vector artwork effortlessly. As someone who doesn't draw traditionally, I rely on the pen tool as a key method for digital drawing.


I licence my artwork to companies, sell products featuring my designs, and am an educator, mentor and Adobe Express ambassador. I'm also passionate about connecting communities, fostering creativity, and bringing people together through art and design.

How long is the class?

The class consists of 60 minutes of video content. However, the time it takes to complete the exercises and practice what you learn during the videos may vary depending on each student's individual pace and familiarity with Adobe Illustrator.

Are there any prerequisites for taking this course?

Yes, basic familiarity with Adobe Illustrator is required. If you're new to Adobe Illustrator, consider starting with my Repeat Patterns for Beginners using Shapes in Adobe Illustrator class to build a solid foundation before diving into this class.

I can't draw, is that needed for this class?

Not at all! This class is perfect for you because it doesn't require any drawing skills. Instead, you'll be creating motifs using the pen tool directly in Adobe Illustrator.

Can I take the class if I don't have Adobe Illustrator?

The class is specifically focused on teaching you how to use the Pen Tool in Adobe Illustrator. If you don't have Adobe Illustrator, you can download a free trial version from the Adobe website to follow along with the lessons and complete the exercises.

Can I use the Adobe Illustrator app on my iPad?

What tools and supplies do I need to take this class?

You'll need a computer with Adobe Illustrator installed. The class was recorded using Adobe Illustrator 27.1. While you don't need this exact version to participate, it's important to note that some features may not be available in older versions. Although you can use an older version, you may encounter challenges in following along with the lessons.
