Today we worked on learning more of the illustrator tools and created this flower vase using mainly the pen tool and gradients and gradient meshes. We drew one side of the vase and then copied and reflected the side. We then united the two sides to create one seamless, symmetrical object. We then used gradient meshes to color it, then lowered its opacity. After this, we drew the flower stems using the pen tool and arranged them in the vase by sending them backwards. Finally, we drew the rose petals using the pen tool, and colored them with a gradient mesh.
