Introduction

Welcome! This is Lindsay's Graphic Academy: Summer School. The summer of 2016 Edition!


For your benefit I have kept last years' lessons on the homepage. Right now you may see "lessons", but those are from last year. Those lessons are compatible with Photoshop, GIMP, and Pixlr. I did, however, take down the assignments from the wattpad thread. 

This year, the focus is on Pixlr, specifically Pixlr Editor.

DESCRIPTION

• Free Two-Month Introductory Course to Pixlr and Graphic Design
• No Commitment (no sign-up required, no deadlines) 
• Clear, Easy, and Detailed Instructions
• Develops multiple, transferable skills 
• Quick feedback and advice

The best way to learn, in my opinion, is through experience.
