Homework: Compass Circles. Set: 27th March 2015. Due: 14th April 2015.

 
 

Create you own circle based artwork using a pencil and compass.
 
The objective of this homework is to improve your compass skills and precision in drawing and positioning circles.
 
I tried to create one where the circles touched the boarders and as many other circles.  I've managed to use only four colours.  The picture below is not possible using only three colours, as the same coloured circles would touch each other.

Homework: Victor Vasarely on Isometric Paper. Set 6th March 2015. Due 10th March 2015.

 
 
Homework due in on Tuesday:  On Isometric paper, design your own ‘Vasarely’

Victor Vasarely became a graphics designer and a poster artist during the 1930s who combined patterns and organic images with each other.
 
Vasarely left Hungary and settled in Paris in 1930 working as a graphic artist and as a creative consultant in advertising agencies.

Vasarely eventually went on to produce art and sculpture mainly focused around the area of optical illusion.  Over the next three decades, Vasarely developed his style of geometric abstract art, working in various materials but using a minimal number of forms and colours.

Below are some fantastic examples from classes 7C & 7K:
