I have written some Illustrator tutorials in which I've used the Blend Tool to create swirls and other shapes, but I have never used it to create a text effect. Then we received this email suggestion from one of our readers quite a few months ago asking us how to create that effect. I really like the text effect and decided to give it a try.
The wallpaper of this week is an image created by Sebastian Andaur, a 17 years old self-taught, multidisciplinary freelance Art Director, Digital Artist and Graphic Designer located in Santiago. Sebastian loves colors since he was born and when he got his first computer he started to playing with them.
