Mrs. Rogers and Mrs. Fillinger's classes are finishing up their art rotation this week. Last week, they worked on Tessellations, hand-made and digital and uploaded their glazed cupcakes to Artsonia. This week, we did a quick 2 day still life study on their gym shoes. Tessellations are repeated patterns across a plane that fit seamlessly together, similar to tile patterns in your kitchen or bath. But we took inspiration from famous artist M. C. Escher to create more interesting tessellation patterns. We first learned how to make them by hand starting with a paper square, then we took that knowledge and applied it digitally using the app Amaziograph.
