Checker Warp
Date: High School Freshman, 2006-7
Time: About 30 minutes to an hour
Materials: Mechanical 0.5 pencil, notebook paper
Description: A kind of optical illusion made by drawing equidistant points on the sides of the picture, picking two points and connecting them to all the other points of the picture. Then coloring in a checkerboard pattern.
Artist Comments: I learned this technique in 4th grade (in 2001). The technique is merely to put dots along the borders. In this drawing, I made them evenly spaced. Then I picked two points that I would connect to all the other points with lines. I colored it in a checker pattern, and it's finished!
I could use this technique in tons of other ways, basically, drawing any type of shape all over the board (as long as it is completely connected) and overlapping shape lines, then coloring checkerboard patterns will make quite an interesting piece.
