          Some optical illusion, i made a while ago.
          The base was simple a yellow stroke where i place a pattern Brush
          in the same size above and the copy scale and rotate it.

          Here the Base

            Another interesting optical illusion.
            Made in VectorStyler and Black Ink

            VectorStyler
            Dashed Lines, random colorized, the whole thing copied, and
            two copies placed underneath, each with a Gaussian blur image effect

            Black Ink
            Only for Symmetry, because of its symmetry Fusion Feature.

              Played a bit with a multiccolor gradient in strokes.
              You could look at this little tutorial of mine

                  Thank you.

                  Yes it looks nice and its realtive easy to do.
                  I just had to relocate some stroke gradients

                  Yes, it looks nice and is relatively easy to create.
                  I just had to reposition some of the gradients a bit.

                  I did this with separate strokes that weren't combined or grouped.
                  If you select all the strokes and then apply a gradient (see the method in the link)
                  over them, the gradients will be in slightly different positions.

                  Ultimately, I actually liked the slightly more chaotic result here even better.

                  Btw i used a concentric gradient

                        Created using:
                        The colorize feature in the Repeater, which can also colorize strokes with a bitmap.
                        (See Manual how)

                        The Style Picker Feature, which allows you to transfer style attributes
                        from one group of objects to another.

                          I used a shape with a multi-colored gradient to colorize a bunch of strokes using the Repeater,
                          and transferred the color (style)—using the new Style Picker Tool Feature— to a bunch of
                          other Strokes created with the Blend function.

                          The strokes colored with the Repeater

                            Took a a gradient from another App with a screenshot and use
                            this raster graphics then to colorize a bunch of strokes with the Repeater.

                            This time no Style Picker Feature where used.
                            I create a a color Palette instead from that bunch of strokes
                            (create Palette from selected Objects)
                            and colored a Swirling Lines Shape after converted it to curves
                            via Colorize with that new palette

                              Made in Vectorstyler, recreate a pattern i found on the Internet
                              mine look a bit different but i am fine with that

                              For anyone who is interested, you need to split the Line
                              in different pieces to create this pattern

                                I more or less replicated a pattern I found online.
                                I couldn't resist using the "Along Stroke" feature
                                in VectorStyler's gradient editor.

                                  This was inspired by "string art"; I wanted to experiment with creating it
                                  as vector graphics and applying gradients to the individual paths to see
                                  what kind of patterns would emerge.

                                  The String Art was made in Nodebox because its very easy to
                                  create Point/Node Pattern with it.

                                  The coloring was created in VectorStyler; which allows to create gradients along a path
                                  and allows them to be applied to the design's paths using the "Style Picker" group function.

                                      @Subpath These graphics look quite unique. I’m curious: can VectorStyler create them at the moment?

                                        I think some of the Designs would be possible in Vectorstyler
                                        all you need is a straight Line, rotate it a bit and copy and repeate it

                                        But i think it is way easier to do it in Nodebox because one would have more Options
                                        when you could set single Points and connect those Points with a Line i dont think
                                        that Vectorstyler could set single points.

                                        To set single points and connect them its very easy in Nodebox. (Nodebox is free, PC and Mac
                                        in the mean time there is also a Version for Silicon based Macs )
                                        All you need is a Path and a Point Node which say how much Points a Path should have.
                                        This way you could create all kind of Point Patterns and connect them.
                                        .
                                        .
                                        Here how the base Structure is made

                                          Some additional notes regarding Points in NodeBox:

                                          Points serve not only to connect lines or paths.
                                          They can also be used to specify positions for shapes or designs.

                                          And since this all is Node-based in Nodebox, it is very easy to replace
                                          one shape with another or to modify the design.

                                          Not to forget that Nodebox is a pretty good compainion to Vectorstyler
                                          NB has .SVG and PDF Export and you could import .SVGs

                                            @Subpath This is a node-based program, which I’m afraid won’t work for me. Just like creating materials in C4D, it requires connecting nodes. This kind of workflow isn’t my strong suit.
