Draw & Paint Islamic Patterns: Eightfold Islamic Geometry

What You Will Learn!

Construct four different eightfold Islamic geometric patterns
Trace, transfer and tile the pattern to create a larger composition.
Create an interwoven effect.
Add colour and create different finishes using watercolour pencils and paints.
Create a subtle 3D effect by outlining in paint or metallic pen.

Description

In each of the four Sections you will learn to construct a different Islamic Geometric Pattern using a compass and ruler.

Section 2: An Itimud Ud Daula Pattern - The Mausoleum Walls

Section 3: A Bou Inania Pattern - The Wooden Jaali

Section 4: An Alhambra Pattern - The Static Geometric Rosette Variation

Section 5: A Moroccan Pattern - The Classic Zellige

These patterns each have a different underlying grid all based on one circle being divided into eight. Once the pattern is constructed, you will see how to trace, transfer and tile the pattern in to a bigger composition.

I will also provide alternative tilings and variations so that you can create a final composition of your choice. I will complete each unit by showing you how I use watercolour pencils and paints on watercolour paper to create a final colourful composition for each unit.
