Any art courses for designers?

Hi,

I'm a beginner we designer and still have troubles with at the artistic levels so I though I could use some art courses, searched Google and found nothing interesting in particular for design.

Have any of you guys took some art courses? online? Can I get to reach professional level without going to serious art course or art school?

Thank you in advance for answering some of my questions.
Elyas.

 

actually, i am too...i am the new designer here, but i tried to get better and step by step i understand, i suggest that you better find some kind of book by on your own as long as i know art is can be achieved by different ways base on that person, because if i go to art course it cost a lot of money

 

Thanks for your answer.
Can you suggest any book that could help in this situation?

 

being a designer like me, you can have plenty of courses.
1. adobe photoshop
2. Corel Draw.
3. illustrator
4. Indesign.
also u can have vfx studio, virtual dj and premier pro

 

I don't use any of this software and I'm looking for art theory courses not software tutorials.
Thanks anyway.

 

Have you checked for courses on https://www.udemy.com/courses/search/?q=art
Good luck!

 

actually, the book what are you looking for sometimes base on the driver, for me i learn CorelDraw suite 12 the old one and X4 so i looked the tutorial in the internet and the book in the bookstore, and my question is what kind of driver are you? maybe i can help you by posting the site as long as i can for sure

 

Hi Bachtlar,

What do youo mean by driver?
Excuse me I'm new to this world .

Best regards,
Elyas.

 

driver mean software like windows but this is about the program like Winamp, windows media player, office etc. and when you are learning about something like program in computer sometimes it means what kind of program do you learn for now so when you don't have it i can help you by giving link of the driver (free driver) you can download and learn also

 

If I am not wrong; you want to be creative in your work like the professional Graphics Designers. You want to get good designing skills, right? If that is the case, you need to do a lot of practice. Watch the tutorials and try to create the similar things. See what the other designers do, how do they come with the new ideas. You will learn a lot from just practicing, and at one point you will be good enough to create something from your own. If you are learning Photoshop, I would suggest reading the book "How to do everything with Photoshop", it is one of the best guide which I've read so far.

Good Luck

 

I find one of the most important things in design is to be able to develop ideas quickly, and also to be able to communicate ideas quickly. Often these involve actually drawing and sketching, rather than using a computer.

Try a drawing course - a lot of fun, and you can build up your drawing confidence really quickly. It should help you in your idea development. Even something like life drawing could be useful, and it's a little bit different to sitting in front of a screen!

Hope this helps.
