I am working on several perspective drawings in the construction industry and am fairly new to the Adobe Illustrator software. Does anyone have any wood grain swatches they would be willing to share? It would be greatly appreciated!

Joanna,

I'm aware of some pattern swatches on the Adobe Studio site (under the Illustrator section) that are used to simulate various landscape and textures. I used to see such things employed in architectural renderings back in the day; still may be used. Here's a link:

I believe these same swatches are also included on the Illustrator CD-ROM.

There is also a wood grain "hatch" effect (look under pen and ink), but it's not that easy to use.
