Adobe Illustrator gradient on a path tutorial
Because a good friend asked me how to do this, I figured I’d make a tutorial on how to draw a gradient along a path in Adobe Illustrator. Please let me know if you have any questions.
If you appreciate this tutorial, please consider my app ›› MeetingCalc for iPhone Shows You How Expensive Those Boring Meetings Really Are.
UPDATE:
A few people have asked about how to make a spiral shape. The preview is below and you can download the illustrator file here.
