Have you ever started Illustrator and thought to yourself: Ok, so what do I do now? And are not you tired of learning its tools over and over again hoping to finally get results at least close to the ones you can see on Behance or Dribble? The truth is that Illustrator can be a frustrating program to learn with all its tools and options. Especially for beginners, who crave to kick off their design career.
