Drawing: Alphonse Mucha and the Zentangle
We began drawing in our sketchbooks today with a great drawing method known as the Zentangle which fills in space with different textures and patterns. The specific type of pattern we learned is based on the great Art Nouveau artist Alphonse Mucha (1860-1939). We began by drawing out our name is a design font or script and filling in areas around it using Zentangle patterns such as the Mucha pattern shown in the video above. This finished design will be due on Tuesday and will count as the first grade of the year. Below is a great tribute painting to Alphonse Mucha by the street artist Mear One from La Brea, Los Angeles.
