Many animal bodies are adorned with spots and stripes, patterns that look different but are mathematically similar. We will look at how these body decorations are created, how they are similar and different, and how simple observational drawing strategies can help us better appreciate and copy patterns from some of our favorite patterned animals. Moving on from pure observation, students will finish with a creative project inspired by animal decorations.

Maximum class size is 12 attendees.
