Hey, fellow art and math enthusiasts! In this video we're diving into the mesmerizing world of 3D MC Escher tessellations and creating our own easy hand drawn 3d tessellation .
So grab your Splat 3d drawing tools - splat3d.com - paper and pencils for some fun pencil drawing in 3d. You can also read on for why we chose to focus on tessellations in our tutorial today.
Firstly, who doesn't love the visual brain tease of a good MC Escher tessellation? Those mind-bending patterns and illusions that seem to go on forever – truly captivating! But in this video, we're not just admiring; we’ll have you creating your own in three dimensions within the next 5 mins.
The cool thing about this video and learning how to draw these by hand on paper not only helps you visualize your design but also lets your creativity flow freely. Making marks and sketching on paper is where innovation comes to life, and it's where your imagination meets the precision of math.
What’s illuminating about studying these types of optical illusions is that we don’t simply see the world as it is, our brains are wired to interpret what we think we see based on our assumptions and experiences developmentally. Think about that for a minute. The better we can teach our brains to view and understand three dimensional images on flat surfaces, like screens, the more likely we are to see new ideas and fuel our ability to problem solve.
As far as we are concerned combining math and art is a match made in creative heaven! When you fuse the beauty of art with the logic of math, you get a dynamic partnership that's perfect for creating new possibilities.
Projects like these not only spark creativity but also provide a hands-on way to understand mathematical concepts. It's a win-win! Whether you're learning about symmetry, proportion, or geometry, the process of creating visually stunning tessellations engages your brain in a way that traditional learning might not.
At this end of this video you’ll have created your very own 3D MC Escher tessellation. Or go one step further and add your work to another student's work to make a mural sized tessellation! What an adventure! As always we love to see your work. Email us at [email protected] or tag us on social media
