really cool
ReplyDeleteI think tessellations are a pretty cool way to combine geometry and art. Also fun to make and since i'm at home today maybe i'll try making one.
ReplyDeleteI really liked doing this art. My favourite part was watching the shapes form a magnificent pattern.
ReplyDeleteTesselations are really amazing because other than being art AND math, tesselations are used in everyday life such as tiling.
