Sun Zentangles

Objectives:

I can demonstrate the ability to create a circle in the center of my paper using a compass

I can demonstrate the ability to add lines and shapes to create texture

I can demonstrate the understanding of repetition and pattern

I can demonstrate the ability to create a zentangle

Vocabulary:

Compass- a drawing tool used to draw circles and arcs

Concentric- arcs or circles with a common center. Circles that contain smaller circles within such as a target or ripples of water in a pond

Contrast- A principle of design that refers to the balance of elements. In this unit, that is the balance of color and white within your work

Repetition- repeating a single element many times within a design
