🎨 Class Description: Surface Pattern Designs on the iPad with Affinity V1 Apps 📱

Hey there, creative minds! I'm Jen Lezan, your instructor for this exciting journey into the world of surface pattern design on your trusty iPad. With a blend of passion for art and a knack for teaching, I run Bella + Sophia Creative studio, where we bring ideas to life with a touch of midwest charm.
