This course is FREE and fully funded

Take some time to get creative! Artists have long used maths to create visual depth and illusion in their art. We will look for inspiration from the Op-Art of the 60s and the illusions of mathematician and artist M.C Escher. Using simple drawing tools, paints and inks, we will create beautiful art by following step by step fun activities that explore how art can be maths and maths can be art. Some exercises will be exact and careful, and some will be free and expressive. We will work small and big and see what visual magic we can create! All materials provided. This will be a fun accessible course for those of all levels of ability and experience . Please book to ensure a place. 5 weekly sessions on Mondays from Oct 28th – Nov 25th 10.30am – 1pm Age 16+ Venue: Little Art Hub, 17 Channel Street, Galashiels.
