Cafe Limon project

Hello friends,

I recently completed the Cafe Limon logo project featured in the Adobe Illustrator book. Initially, I faced some challenges with the gradient mesh tool. I used the eyedropper tool to sample colors from the original lemon image and applied them to the anchor points in the wireframe, but I didn't notice any changes. After some investigation, I realized I hadn't been viewing the preview and hadn’t sampled enough colors to see the adjustments I was making.

I’ve found that taking a break and stepping away from your work can be incredibly effective for both efficiency and creativity. After that minor setback, I thoroughly enjoyed the project. The hands-on learning experience really brought everything together! Here’s what I came up with!
