Visual "Tricks"

OP Art

Op Art is short for Optical Art, art that "tricks" the eye.  This project is one that kids enjoy as they see the results of their line and pattern choices.  It has a great mathematical connection when revisiting concepts like even numbers, AB patterns, shapes, perspective, etc.

  This time we incorporated technology for those who wanted to try it.
