Wondering if there is an easy way to achieve a layered line effect as seen here:
Or does this have to be manually drawn using the pen tool? Essentially I’m wondering if there is a tool in illustrator that allows you to repeat the pattern.
Thanks!
Answer
Step 1: Draw a few strait lines as shown in the image. Select them all and create a artbrush. No settings need to be changed.
Step 2: Draw your circles. Keep in mind that they need to touch each other. Select the two circles and choose the newly created artbrush from the brushpanel.
Step 3: Keep the 2 circles selected and expand them (Object > Expand). Now you can delete the parts that you want to be behind.
