ARTC 1353: Gradients and Blending

Tonight's class was all about gradients and blending. While I knew there was a lot that you could do in Illustrator in order to manipulate these elements, I've never really looked into what all they can do. Our assignment tonight was to create a menu for a cafe and utilize the skills we learned tonight. We also had to include the following elements:

• Text
• A blend applied to an object and made into a new shape
• A menu item you have created
• A gradient applied to an object
• A menu item from the symbols palette
• A menu item showing color blend
• A menu item showing shape blend

I think I managed to hit all of the requirements. I had a lot of fun creating this menu and I'm looking forward to working on the perspective assignment.
