Description

This course is for newbies as well as those who have been using Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator for a while.

In the course I am concentrating on creating beautiful designs for Merch By Amazon and other Print On Demand merchandizing sites (like RedBubble, Etsy, Sunfrog, Zazzle, Cafepress, Teespring, Spreadshirt, Teepublic, etc.)

I have been using Photoshop and Illustrator for over 20 years. I started using these two applications while working in Print Design. That is why my experience is so pertinent for this course.

You can take this course and know nothing about Photoshop, Illustrator, or graphic design and soon learn how to create great t-shirt designs that will sell and make you money – passive income – online.

The course is over five hours long and contains many extra downloadable materials (Adobe Illustrator documents and Photoshop documents).

You can dip into the course and do just the Illustrator videos or just the Photoshop videos, it's up to you!

Photoshop and Illustrator are great fun to use once you know how. And 90% of this course's videos teaches you exactly how to make specific designs that will sell on Merch By Amazon.

So join me on this course so you can learn the fun way to make beautiful designs that sell!

Who this course is for:

  • Anyone who wants to learn how to design t-shirts with Photoshop and/or Illustrator
