If you’ve been hearing the buzz about Affinity Designer 3 and wondering what it actually means for your art, your teaching, or your creative business, this solo episode with Delores will help you breathe a little easier—and maybe even get excited.

In this episode, Delores shares her first impressions of Designer 3 on desktop, why she’s still working in Designer 2 on iPad, and how she’s testing her templates and workflows to make sure everything still runs smoothly for her students.

She also talks candidly about the bigger picture: pricing, accessibility, Canva’s involvement, and what this shift might mean for independent artists long term.

You’ll hear about:

  • Why Delores believes Affinity Designer is poised to leap ahead of Adobe Illustrator for many artists
  • How the one-time purchase model supports creatives who aren’t ready for hefty monthly subscriptions
  • What excites her about the Canva + Affinity ecosystem and the idea of a more connected creative workflow
  • How the new all-in-one interface (Designer, Photo, Publisher together) can streamline your studio setup
  • Reassurance that all her Affinity Designer 2 courses still work beautifully in Designer 3
  • Why you don’t need to rush to upgrade—especially if you’re an iPad user
  • Real examples of students customising their Affinity workspaces to blend vector, pixel, and layout tools

Have you tried Affinity Designer 3 yet? Delores would love to hear your experience—send her a note on Instagram @deloresart or via the chat on deloresart.ca and you may hear your thoughts woven into a future episode.

If you’re an artist, surface pattern designer, or creative educator wondering how to navigate this next chapter of digital tools, this episode is for you.
