In this Illustrator video, Tony Harmer shows off a better way to draw designs with curves. Instead of hobbling along with the Pen tool, he demonstrates how the Curvature Pen tool creates perfect curves between points. And the paths are just as editable, no matter which tool was used to create them.
This tutorial was taken from Tony’s “Illustrator Power Tips” session at our 2021 Adobe Illustrator Summit.
