Gradient Art Generator

Create layered radial-gradient artwork with blend modes, random presets, and copy-ready CSS for modern backgrounds and hero sections.

Unlike simple linear gradient generators, this page focuses on layered radial composition. It is useful for hero backgrounds, poster textures, social visuals, and creative UI surfaces where you need expressive and non-uniform color transitions.

Core Features

• Three editable gradient layers with enable/disable toggle
• Per-layer controls for shape, center position, colors, and stops
• Global controls for blend mode, background color, size, and position
• One-click random generation for quick inspiration
• One-click CSS copy for direct project usage

How To Use

1. Set blend mode and base background color in global controls.
2. Tune each layer’s shape, color pair, center, and stop values.
3. Watch the live preview update instantly.
4. Use Random Gradient to explore new style directions.
5. Click Copy CSS and paste the generated code into your stylesheet.

Typical Scenarios

• Hero section background design
• Poster and social card texture generation
• Early-stage visual exploration for branding
• Fast gradient prototyping for frontend projects

Notes

• High-saturation layer combinations may reduce text readability.
• Test contrast in both light and dark UI contexts.
• For production use, freeze selected values as design tokens.
