geometric pattern designing

This is a great class to explore the variety of ways a geometric created ‘tile’ pattern can be used to create a variety of design outcomes depending on what content we fill it with, how we repeat it, and how we orientate each tile relative to each other. We learn to understand what tile features work well and how we can achieve differing patterns with the same tile feature.

Suitable in general for ages 11yrs +

All materials included in class.

This is a class inspired by early traditional Celtic Design methods. A good foundational approach to Celtic design work is to first explore some of the basic, easy to create, step and key patterns that inform backgrounds and borders in much Celtic Art. Students can create their own design via understanding these methods employed by design practitioners of Celtic art and manuscripts.
