from pizza slice to full mandala in minutes. here are some visuals of what was happening during our live session tonight. i just finished teaching the master textile design creativity track and couldn’t stop looking at this mandala and had to share.
one hardly used feature in illustrator is the polar grid tool, but oh how much fun it can become.
i use the polar grid tool to create a small slice of creativity.
i then use the rotate tool to fill the entire circle with the creative slices.. mandala bliss.
this is the final result of the pizza becoming a mandala and then a repeat tossed together by the new illustrator cs6 pattern tool.
i hope this inspired you a bit to play with the polar grid tool, please let me know if it did?
