Here's the first of my diversions into geometry. This practice will eventually lead to trying to draw the bugs, flowers, leaves, etc., that I love to photograph. First, I need to work on some basic drawing skills. Plus, it provides some enjoyable connections to art for my geometry students. The top two drawings consist only of straight lines but give the illusion of curves. Fun. The bottom two are made only with a compass - interlocking circles - and samples of my Caran D'Arche watercolor pencils. I'm going to go over these with a wet brush and see what sort of change happens. Next post will be geometry-inspired natural objects.
