Patterns of Paradise: Islamic Geometric Art
Learn the precise art of Islamic geometry from traditions in Morocco, Iran, and Turkey. We’ll use pencils, rulers, and compasses to draft a geometric pattern on thick card stock, then paint the design with acrylics. You’ll practice symmetry, division of space, and the meditative process of building patterns with a compass and straightedge.
Explore the joy of creating through our guided workshops. Each session is designed to be accessible, hands‑on, and rooted in the rich traditions of Islamic art. Our workshops start with a short introduction to the history and tradition behind the style, then we guide you step‑by‑step through creating your own piece.
No experience is needed and all materials are provided.
