Pattern Variations in Seconds Illustrator CC (Part 1)

Part 2    • Pattern Variations in Seconds Illustrator ...   The new auto-generated corner tile presets in Adobe Illustrator CC can be used for more than just making borders. This tutorial explores alternative methods of applying pattern brushes to basic geometric shapes to generate dozens of pattern variations in seconds. Applying this quick method can produce dozens of interesting design results to explore, all from one initial design. Create alternate tiling patterns from one pattern brush, or use the results to create new designs altogether. If you haven't used the pattern brush beyond creating a repeating tiled border, this tutorial will help incorporate it into your workflow as a great way to brainstorm for new design possibilities.
