The Art of Spiral Drawing: Learn to Create Spiral Art and Geometric Drawings Using Pencil, Pen, and More
The Art of Spiral Drawing offers a fresh, modern take on everyone's favorite childhood toy from the 1960s through today, the Spirograph(R). With The Art of Spiral Drawing, no complicated tools are needed, as artists of all skill levels learn to create their own spiral art using little more than paper and a pen or pencil. Written and illustrated by Jonathan Stephen Harris, the author of the popular The Art of Drawing Optical Illusions, the book opens with helpful sections on tools and materials, perspective, and shading, ensuring that beginning artists know the basics before getting started on the step-by-step projects that follow. Instructions for creating basic shapes, including a triangle, a circle, and a square, progress into more detailed patterns featuring perspective, florals, and more. Instructions are also included for creating a variety of subjects, from flowers to animals, all featuring a spiral pattern as their framework. Artists can even add color to their spiral artwork using the tips featured in the book and simple tools like colored pencils and markers. Beginning and intermediate artists, doodlers, optical illusionists, and more will love creating their own spiral and geometric art with the help of The Art of Spiral Drawing

Published by LLS , 3 years ago
For those of you that are familiar with the Zentangle Method of drawing by Rick Roberts and Maria Thomas, this book is all about using the tangle Paradox to form many patterns. He shows how to use the pattern in a triangle, square, hexagon, and in multiple patterns of animals. It is the optical illusion that although the lines are drawn straight, they give the appearance of being a curved spiral that the author plays on. (I got it on sale at Hobby Lobby for less that $3.)
