As much as I’d like to take full credit for this post, I certainly cannot. I learned every aspect of it from the Adobe Illustrator WOW book and owe them full credit for their remarkable tutorials and instructional guides in the book. As I mentioned in a previous post, our abilities didn’t just happen over night.

Reproducing this feature in print has some of the same difficulties in our previous post about drop shadows.
