Do you want to achieve professional results in working with vector graphics, while using free and freely distributable software? Then Inkscape is your only option. In our course, you will learn both the basic drawing of shapes and their transformation and formatting, as well as more advanced procedures for their editing, such as editing segments and nodes, Boolean operations or vectorizing bitmap images. You'll add text to your drawings, import photos, and prepare the entire composition for export or printing. You'll also use more advanced features such as Path Effects, Filters, and Inkscape Extensions. Upon completion, you will be able to create a variety of logos, icons, symbols, diagrams, flyers, business cards and web graphics.
