Pair simple, geometric shapes with organic lines to create a fun flat lay-style illustration!
This video introduces you to creating an illustration using simple rectangular shapes and to tracing a hand-drawn sketch.
Draw rectangles
Use the Rectangle tool to draw squares and rectangles that are the building blocks of your illustration.
Draw with the Pencil tool
Draw curvy and straight lines to complete your illustration. Pairing organic lines with sharp edges in the artwork provides eye-catching contrast!
Adjust stroke weight
Change the emphasis and appearance by adjusting the line (stroke) thickness.
Sample color
Make your black-and-white drawings colorful by using the Eyedropper tool to borrow colors already in the artwork.
