Module #4




I really wanted to try what M.C. Escher did with reflections. The top one is the last one I did, the bottom one is the first one I did. A very specific thing I ran into was the difficulty of making a perfect circle to represent the sphere! And if it isn't a perfect circle, it ruins the contortions (like in the second one). I really enjoyed experimenting with this because it gives you a completely different point of view on the world around you--LITERALLY! I want to try more viewpoints from reflecting objects and see what happens. I also saw that having contrasting shadows and lights is VERY important, and I want to see what happens if I try to use colour. Again, I'm really sorry I misread the instructions.
