In the previous five classes we learned the first three symmetry methods used in creating nested shape tessellations and patterns. Mirror, rotation and translation. This class introduces and explains in depth, the fourth symmetry operation, the glide reflection. It was one of M.C. Escher’s favourites, having accomplished 25 drawings using this symmetry method. Koloman Moser, another artist from before Escher’s time also used this tessellation method. We will study the symmetry group that I like to call "THIS WAY – THAT WAY" with examples from these two Masters, as well as contemporary tessellation artists from around the globe. We will skim the various possibilities when coloring artwork for easy as well as pleasant effects. And as a side benefit, we will use the new KaleidoPaint, version 3.0, and cover a few of the new menus, tool locations and attributes.
