A tessellation is any geometric mannequin that can be repeated infinitely, interlocking with itself to contour a seamless area. These designs can be as no sweat as a average enigma group or as confused as the Craft of M.C. Escher, which featured pages of interlocking birds, fish, and other designs. Disposed that the results can be so compound, it's a bit surprising that the steps to cause a tessellation are straightforward and can be picked up in a infrequent minutes. As you experience, you Testament be able to practise more and more intricate patterns.
Instructions
1. Trail a square in the Centre of your paper. A square is a easy tessellation because you can fill a sheet with squares stacked top to backside and left to condign. Make a tiled drawing of your tessellation if you like, by tracing the shape on tracing paper. Move the paper so that the shapes interlock, and trace as many more copies as you want.
Erase the bottom line and replace it with an identical upward pointing angle. This shape is a tessellation because it can be stacked on itself.
3. Change the other initial lines of the square. They must be identical to each other, but not necessarily to the lines you have already changed. For example, you could replace the left and right sides of the shape with identical "s"-shaped curves (again, facing in the same direction).
4. Repeat this process as many times as you like to make a tessellation more complex. Adding smaller and smaller details.
5. Add interior details like texture or facial features if you want to make a tessellation look like an animal or other common form.
6. This development should cook up a tessellation last of Everyone action.2. Replace two contrary lines of the square in exactly the same way. For instance, erase the top of your square and replace it with an upward pointing angle, like the roof of a house.
