In this intermediate tutorial, I show you pro tips for using the Recolor Artwork feature effectively in Adobe Illustrator. I guide you to the important yet hidden setting in Advanced Options for recoloring black and white in your pattern designs. You'll also see the difference in applying color swatch groups to your art vs. limiting colors to a swatch library, like the Spoonflower Color Map. When you need to locate a specific color in your pattern design, I show you how to turn on the magnifying glass in Advanced Options to highlight it.
