## Overview

Adobe Illustrator Bootcamp teaches vector drawing from the ground up. You work with the standard shape tools, the Pen tool, Pathfinder operations, gradients, blends, patterns, type, and Image Trace, along with Generative Recolor for exploring color directions quickly. The Pen tool is rarely intuitive at first, so it is taught with tracing templates that build the muscle memory gradually rather than expecting it to click on the first attempt.

Because vector artwork scales without losing quality, the same file has to work on a business card and on a billboard. You build logos, icons, patterns, and typographic artwork, then learn how to prepare and export each one correctly for web, digital, and print. The result is a complete design package rather than a folder of disconnected exercises.

## What you'll learn
