Creativity Challenge – Design a flower in Adobe Illustrator

[Om Nath Jha]

Here’s an opportunity to have your artwork featured on Adobe Communities and Social channels for Illustrator!

Using Illustrator, create a flower that you think best represents the designer in you and share your creation in the thread below.

Just in case you need help getting started, we've consolidated the flower creation process in five simple steps. Please check this detailed help article for a step-by-step procedure. There are also some sample files that you can download to kickstart your creativity. 

Next Steps: The challenge will be active until further announced. We’ll feature the best submissions from the community. The best piece of art will also be nominated to get featured on our official social channels such as @illustrator and @AdobeCare. 

Let’s get started!

I like gradient mesh...

What is gradient mesh and how to use it? Very nice rose, by the way.

Programmatic flowers

//Create two-path group then run
var flower1 = activeDocument.groupItems[0];
for (i = 0; i < 200; i++) {
  colour1 = new CMYKColor ();
    colour1.cyan = 0; colour1.magenta = 0; colour1.yellow = 0; colour1.black = 100;
  colour2 = new CMYKColor ();
    colour2.cyan = (Math.floor (Math.random () * 100));
    colour2.magenta = (Math.floor (Math.random () * 100));
    colour2.yellow = (Math.floor (Math.random () * 100));
  y = 2.835 * (Math.floor (Math.random () * (100 - 20)) + 20);
  x = 2.835 * (Math.floor (Math.random () * 80));
  d = 2.835 * (Math.floor (Math.random () * (20 - 5)) + 5);
  flower2 = flower1.duplicate ();
  flower2.top = y; flower2.left = x;
  flower2.height = d; flower2.width = d;
  flower2.pathItems[0].fillColor = colour1;
  flower2.pathItems[1].fillColor = colour2;
}

Thanks for the script. I can see all sorts of possibilities deriving from this.

The bloom is an illustration I made (for a design class) of a photograph I took (for a photography class!) My first time using gradient mesh.

Last summer, I won a free page in the German version of the Lürzer's Archive. 

For my design, I created an illustration of an influencer.  The tattoo on her arm had roses.
