Your project for this class is to:

Follow along with me as I show you multiple techniques of creating faux gradients using an analog or digital medium of your choice.

Explore and develop 4 of your own variations of these techniques of blending without blending.

Incorporate any of the techniques you learned or discovered in this class to create a pattern or illustration.

I will be taking you through different techniques to create gradients without blending that will get you comfortable around the concept and inspired to come up with new ideas of your own.

Sharing your project:

I would absolutely LOVE to see your exercises throughout this class and how you apply them into your own illustration or lettering styles, so don’t forget to show them to me and your fellow students by uploading your project to our class Project Gallery. You may take photographs of your pieces if you’re working with an analog medium or post images of your digital work.

Please include the following in your uploads:

Images of your practice exercises that you follow along with my demonstrations in this class.
Your personal exploration of 4 variations of the demonstrated techniques.
A pattern or illustration incorporating at least one of the techniques you tried out.

By the end of the project, besides having tried out some fun new faux gradient techniques and used them in your illustrations, you will be left with a lot of new ideas and tips to take your illustration game to the next level.

Can’t wait to see your class projects!
