Save Time with Templates

Do you ever find yourself starting a new illustration, then spending 10 minutes changing the document size, color mode, the styles, the swatches et al? Ad nauseam? And by the time you get it all set up, your creative juice is about to run dry. Am I right?

If that is the case, Templates are for you. Spend some time creating a template for yourself, and then when you’re ready to roll, all you need to think about is your idea and the blank canvas in front of you.

Templates not only save you time, but they help maintain consistency in your work. With templates you can create a personal color palette and have it at the ready every time you begin to work. But that’s not all. Templates can store swatches, styles, brushes, actions, graphs — just about anything you use over and over.
