Adobe Illustrator has some cool and powerful tools for manipulating the colors in your document. Using these tools, you can achieve some very nice colorization’s even if you aren’t particularly good at choosing colors. It also becomes easier to try out different versions quickly!

Blending Colors

You can select multiple objects in Illustrator and have them automatically “blend” in color. To illustrate, make a row of objects of all the same color. Make the one on the left the bottom-most object (if it isn’t already…) with Command-Shift-{ and make the right one the top most object by selecting it and using Command-Shift-}.
