Magnifing Nature
Description
Get up close to the textures and patterns of our natural environment. Using magnifying glasses, explore the abstract patterns of bark, leaves, cobwebs, and moss. How does the detail that you see inform a design of your own?
Playful experimentation using a range of mediums, layering crayons, pastels, and dyes, and producing a series of rich patterns. Compare results from ‘Quick Draw’ and slow observation methods of recording what you see.
