Step 1 

Here is the result, for just a simple rectangle 

You can do this with any shape. Try applying 

brush strokes/gradients/transparency and 

different options as you experiment. 

Step 2 

Select all of those circles and combine them 

using the Pathfinder palette. (Window> Path- 

finder) Click on the “Add to Shape Area 

Button,” and then the “Expand” button, in that 

order 





Step 1 

Make a bunch of circles in a row like this. This is 

the shape we are going to use to make our 

brush. I’ve found that it’s best to keep this 

shape simple for starters, until you get the 

hang of how the brush works. 

Step 2 

Select all of the circles at once and, in your 

brushes palette, click on the options arrow, 

then “New Brush…” 

Step 3 

Select “New Pattern Brush.” 

Step 4 

In the Pattern Brush Options. Important: Make 

sure you select “Tints” as the Colorization 

Method. This allows you to change the color of 

the brush stroke later. There are some other 

options you might also play with here to get 

the effects you like. Choose your settings and 

click OK.
