Using Bitmaps To Add Texture to Illustrations In Adobe Illustrator

Intermediate / Advanced Level Content. In this video I explain the basics behind how I use Bitmaps created in Adobe Photoshop, to add texture to Illustrations in Adobe Illustrator. I very briefly explain how to convert a texture into a Bitmap using Adobe Photoshop, then how to import that bitmap texture into Illustrator. As always, this video presents principles you can apply in your own work, rather than a step by step tutorial of how to re-create one of my illustrations.
