Evgeniya Righini-Brand


I am a graphic designer at Attitude Creative and a gradient fanatic. I teach a popular class on Mastering Gradients in Adobe Illustrator, and I have an ongoing Gradient Studies series, which is my personal pursuit exploring different techniques for creating vector gradient-based designs by exploiting the full potential of Illustrator’s tools.

I am often asked how I have created certain pieces in my popular Gradient Studies series, and in this class I am excited to dissect for you a selection of designs which feature some of my favourite tricks and techniques, and share a few tips and ideas for how you can use a combination of Illustrator’s tools in your future projects to create some exciting works easier and faster.

What Students Say

"Great lesson! Evgeniya has excellent lessons: detailed, informative, with clear descriptions and examples. She gives much more information than I could expect from the topic of the lesson!"

— Olga

More often than not even the most complex-looking gradient-based designs made in Adobe Illustrator are quite easy to create — and you can get impressive results by using a clever combination of Illustrator's basic tools and looking beyond their obvious functionality!


This class is designed for intermediate and advanced Adobe Illustrator users who know their way around the program well and are proficient users of Illustrator’s core tools and functionality, including:

  • Fill Gradients;
  • Stroke Gradients;
  • Clipping Masks;
  • Opacity Masks;
  • Blend Tool;
  • Gradient Meshes;
  • Appearance Attributes: Fill & Stroke Attributes, Blending Modes, Opacity;
  • Grain & Blur Effects;
  • working with Appearance panel.


Whether you are an illustrator, graphic artist or designer who needs to quickly visualise concepts to pitch ideas to clients or an in-house team, or create final works for print or digital use, I hope this class will spark some new visual ideas and help you create eye-catching designs more efficiently!

What Students Say


"Great overview of awesome concepts and theories using many different kinds of gradients together, with great explanations on how to make them and why they work."

— Sean



"This class was full of handy gradients techniques, and was fun to experiment along with! It's great to take it alongside Evgeniya's "Mastering Gradients in Adobe Illustrator" class, as the other class goes into much more depth about how to make good-looking gradients and what goes behind making them."
