Live Corners is hands down the BEST feature to come from Adobe Illustrator CC. What might seem like a simple little perk at first quickly becomes an incredibly versatile, time-saving tool when you dig deeper. Join in me in this free class where I walk through the many uses that can come from Live Corners and show you how they can be applied just about anywhere :)

This class will teach you to fully make use of the benefits Adobe Illustrator's Live Corners have to offer. At first glance, it's a simple new addition to Illustrator's arsenal, but by the end of this class you will understand the true power that it holds (and remember that with great power comes great responsibility).
