On average, I get one call per month from artists with questions about Art Brushes. The conversation usually goes something like this – "I know that there are a lot of Art Brushes that come with Illustrator," the artist says, "but I can’t seem to find exactly what I need."
In my last tutorial, I discussed "Creating a Window Through Your Brochure Cover." The Steps involved in creating the die cut look of the layout, resulted in some interesting feedback from readers. One particular reader's comments stood out.
One of the most intriguing tools in Adobe Illustrator is the Spiral tool, not because of what it does â?? creates spirals â?? but because of the mysterious terms used its dialog box. Words like Radius, Decay, and Segments leave artists with more questions than answers.
