In the following steps, you will learn how to create an easy rangoli design for Diwali in Adobe Illustrator.
For starters, you will learn how to set up a simple grid and how to easily create the starting shape. Taking full advantage of the Appearance panel, you will learn how to decorate the edges of the first shape. Using basic vector shape building techniques, the Appearance panel and a bunch of Transform effects, you will learn how to stylize the interior of your circle.
Finally, you will learn how to create a flat background and how to add a subtle shadow below your final rangoli design.
For more inspiration on how to adjust or improve your final design, you can find plenty of resources at GraphicRiver.
What You Will Need
You will need the following resource in order to complete this project:
1. How to Create a New Document and Set Up a Grid
Hit Control-N to create a new document. Select Pixels from the Units drop-down menu, enter 850 in the width and height boxes, and then click that More Settings button. Select RGB for the Color Mode, set the Raster Effects to Screen (72 ppi), and then click Create Document.
Enable the Grid (View > Show Grid) and the Snap to Grid (View > Snap to Grid). You will need a grid every 10 px, so simply go to Edit > Preferences > Guides & Grid, and enter 10 in the Gridline every box and 1 in the Subdivisions box. Try not to get discouraged by all that grid—it will make your work easier, and keep in mind that you can easily enable or disable it using the Control-“ keyboard shortcut.
You can learn more about Illustrator’s grid system in this short tutorial from Andrei Stefan: Understanding Adobe Illustrator’s Grid System.
You should also open the Info panel (Window > Info) for a live preview with the size and position of your shapes. Don’t forget to set the unit of measurement to pixels from Edit > Preferences > Units. All these options will significantly increase your work speed.
2. How to Create the First Circle
Step 1
Pick the Ellipse Tool (L) and focus on your Toolbar. Remove the color from the stroke and then select the fill and set its color to R=23 G=50 B=127. Move to your artboard and simply create a 490 px circle—the grid and the Snap to Grid will make things easier.
Open the Align panel (Window > Align). Set the aligning to Artboard (open the fly-out menu and go to Show Options if you can’t see the Align To section as shown in the following image) and then simply click the Horizontal Align Center and Vertical Align Center buttons. This will move your shape to the center of the canvas.
Step 2
Make sure that your shape is still selected, and open the Appearance panel (Window > Appearance).
Select the stroke, set its color to R=255 G=213 B=6, and then open that Stroke fly-out panel. Set the Weight to 10 px and check the Align Stroke to Outside button.
Step 3
Make sure that your shape stays selected, and keep focusing on the Appearance panel.
Select the entire path (simply click that Path piece of text from the top of the panel) and go to Effect > Distort & Transform > Zig Zag. Enter the attributes shown in the following image, and click OK.
3. How to Decorate the Edges of the First Circle
Step 1
Pick the Ellipse Tool (L) and create two 30 px circles. Fill both shapes with R=250 G=0 B=8 and place them as shown in the following image.
Select both shapes and turn them into a simple compound path (Object > Compound Path > Make or Control-8).
Step 2
Make sure that your compound path stays selected and focus on the Appearance panel.
Select the stroke and set its color to R=255 G=213 B=6. Change the Weight to 10 px and don’t forget to align it to outside.
Step 3
Make sure that your compound path stays selected and focus on the Appearance panel. Use the Add New Fill button to add a second fill and select it.
