In this tutorial, you will learn how to draw the Google Chrome browser logo in Illustrator.

Create a new 800 x 800 px document. Take the Ellipse Tool (L) (Oval), hold down the Shift key and draw a circle. On the tool
options panel, turn off the stroke, if it is active, and fill the shape with blue (# 4589F6).
Then go to Edit - Copy (Ctrl + C) and Edit - Paste in Place (Editing - Paste in the same place) (Shift + Ctrl + V). Hold down the
Shift + Alt keys and enlarge the circle.
Open the Color Picker panel and select any gray shade for the copy.
Next, go to Object - Arrange - Send to Back .
Repeat copying the gray circle Edit - Copy (Ctrl + C) and Edit - Paste in Place (Shift + Ctrl + V).

Hold down the Shift + Alt keys and enlarge the circle. Fill it with a darker shade of gray.
Repeat Object - Arrange - Send to Back .
Take the Pencil Tool (N) (Pencil), activate the guides View - Smart Guides (View - Quick Guides) (Ctrl + U).
Click with the mouse on the top point of the middle light gray circle. Then we move the cursor horizontally to the outer right
border of the great circle and click with the mouse. Then go to Select - Deselect (Selection - Deselect). If you press the key
combination Ctrl + Y, then you will switch to the outline view mode and see your line.
Without turning off the outline view mode, draw two more lines.
Activate the Selection Tool (V) (Selection), hold down the Shift key and select the two central circles (blue and light gray). Go
to Edit - Copy (Ctrl + C) and Edit - Paste in Place . Move the copied shapes outside of the logo.

With the Selection Tool (V) select the entire logo, then activate the Live Paint Bucket (K). When you hover over a specific area,
it is highlighted with a red outline. This means that when filling with color, we will only fill in this particular part of the logo.

Choose red (# E04A40) and fill in the upper part of the logo.
Then move on to green (# 15A05F) and yellow (# FECD44).
Take the Direct Selection Tool (A), select the gray center circle, open the Color Picker window (double-click on the color square
at the bottom of the toolbar) and set the color to white.
As a result, both center circles are filled with color. To fix this, select the central circle with the same tool and set it to blue color
separately.
We are done with the basic elements. We just need to add some shading.
Select the entire logo and go to Object - Lock - Selection . This will block the elements of the logo so as not to accidentally move
them.

Take the Pen Tool (P) (Pen) and draw a triangle as shown below.

Set this shape to yellow. Open a new panel Window - Color Guide (Window - Catalog of colors) and select a darker shade of
yellow.

Repeat the same for the green part of the logo.
And red.
Select all three shapes and reduce their Opacity to 20%.
Go back to the center circles that we copied earlier. Take the Direct Selection Tool (A) (Partial Selection) and select the light gray
circle. Change its color to white. Then select both circles.
Next, go to Object - Arrange - Bring to Front ( Object - Arrangement - Bring to front). Hold down the Shift key and move the
selected shape onto the logo.
Then go to Object - Unlock All . Select the entire logo and merge it into one group Object - Group (Ctrl + G).

On the top panel, select Align to Artboard and align the logo to the center.
