DRAWING- OP ART NAME GRID

 


Description: This project uses optical illusion art to make our name stand out against the background. We first drew our names in bubble letters and then created a grid over our names. Then we chose complimentary colors (blue and orange) and began coloring. The trip to this project was to not let the same color touch at any point. Each box and portion of the letters had to be colored a different color without touching on any side. I chose to mark off what color I was going to use in each box before I actually colored it to make it a little bit easier. This method worked well for me, but it was still tricky to figure out how to keep the same colors from toughing each other. 

Extension: As an extension of this activity, I would use the project to teach a math lesson. Students would be able to choose any appropriate word they wanted for a second art piece. With this piece they would have to use a ruler to measure out the boxes and make them all the same size across the entire paper.
