Art Project Discussion

Objective: Create a tessellation with "recognizable figures" in the style of M.C. Escher.

See Tessellation Art Project for a more detailed assignment sheet. The purpose of this page is to give the breakdown of due dates for the project.

• Friday October 8th: 10-15 rough sketches due. (At least 8 different ideas tried.)

• Friday October 15th: Rough draft of chosen sketch. This version should show all the detail that will be present in the finished artwork, but does not have to have the technical or artistic polish of a finished work.

• Friday October 22nd: Final Project Due: At this point you must submit your final project along with the written paper. See below:

Written paper instructions:

• Paper must be typed.

• The paper should be at least 3 pages.

• At least one page should be devoted to first and last of the three stages (due dates) mentioned above. One half of a page should be devoted to the rough draft stage. The idea is for it to be more of a journal of your process and not a paper written posthumously. The remaining half of a page is a reflective portion discussing the questions found at Tessellation Art Project.
