Enjoy playing with colour, symmetry and pattern? Love a good circle? Join @MissBowkett and I on our #Maydala challenge and create a #mandala a day in May!

If you would like to make your own right-way-up version of my upside down (oops!) rainbow hearts window display, instructions follow in the thread below 👇👇👇

Making things with your hands is wonderfully therapeutic - great for stress relief & attaining a state of flow.

With that in mind: a thread of hands-on 3D maths projects for lockdown👇👇👇

#3DMaths #HandsOnMaths #LockdownMaths #ArtfulMaths #Mathsart #MathArt #MakersGonnaMake 1) First off, one of my old favourites: a dodecahedral kusudama flower ball 🌸😍🌸

You could make a daffodil-yellow version for Easter... 🐰🐣💐

One down! Pattern 1 from ‘The #Alhambra With A Ruler And Compass’ by Manuel Martinez Vela: plasterwork from the facade of the Mexuar.

Experimented with a burnt umber wash, but don’t think the sketchbook’s up to it! #wrinkles

#inktober2019 #inktoberAlhambra #inktoberday2 Forgot to post this yesterday! Pattern 2 from ‘The Alhambra With A Ruler And Compass’ by Manuel Martinez Vela: tiles from the south wall interior of the Mexuar.

Nice to be using the Alhambra colours! 🧡💚💙🖤
