Radiant Rays with Illustrator Symbols + Objects on Path

Learn how to create editable, flexible artwork using Illustrator’s Objects on Path feature (new in 2025) — paired with the power of Symbols!

In this tutorial, I walk you through the basics of how Objects on Path works in Adobe Illustrator, including how to create, edit, and customize the results. Then, we’ll apply it in a practical example: building the rays around a lightbulb.

You’ll also learn how using Symbols with Objects on Path can save time and make editing faster and more consistent—especially when you want to make design updates across multiple objects.
