6. Apply the new graphic style to the sun.
Target the sun in the Layers palette, and click the graphic style you just created in the Graphic Styles palette.
7. Experiment with design variations.
Now that you know how to apply and edit graphic styles, experiment with design variations. Start by creating a
duplicate of the sun and cloud by dragging Layer 1 in the Layers palette onto the Create New Layer button. Then
click in the selection column for the copied layer, and press the arrow keys on your keyboard to reposition the
duplicate sun and cloud. (Hold down the Shift key to move the selection in bigger increments.)
If you want to remove the existing graphic styles before applying new ones, click the Clear Appearance button in the
Appearance palette. This removes all appearance attributes (including the fill and stroke) so the sun and cloud won’t
be visible in the document window until you target them and apply new graphic styles.
Create headline type with a twist
Adobe Illustrator provides powerful, flexible features for creating and modifying type. You can add type anywhere
in your artwork—horizontally, vertically, along paths, inside shapes, around shapes, in rows and in columns. In this
tutorial, you’ll learn how to create a headline that you can reuse for a variety of purposes.
