  13. Recolor Artwork • Whenever you click a swatch in the Swatches panel or color in Color panel, that color becomes the base color for current Harmony Rules in the Color Guide panel.

  14. Recolor Artwork These are Harmony Rules available for a red base color.

  15. Recolor Artwork • When you select an object, then choose a harmony rule in the Color Guide panel, the selected object does not change color. • Instead, the Color Guide panel loads groups of swatches called variations, which you use to colorize illustrations.
