Programming Islamic-style art in J2Code

This session is about looking at examples of Islamic Art and then drawing your own in J2Code.

The base-shape for this pattern is a hexagon.

Could you draw a pattern with a different number of hexagons?

What variables would you need to change?

Can you draw Islamic Style patters using another base-shape?

Save each example as you go.

Search the web for examples of Islamic Art.

You might want to copy some examples to refer to later on.

What are the key characteristics of Islamic art?

You will find a file in Shared Files called Islamic Art.

If you put the blocks together in the right order and alter some of the variables, you will be able to draw an Islamic-style pattern like the one below.
