#42 Islamic Geometric Patterns on an Isometric Grid
Вставка
- Опубліковано 17 січ 2020
- I want to give you a taste of how you can draw a good deal of sixfold Islamic geometric patterns on an Isometric grid, a tiling of equilateral triangles. This grid can be drawn using a compass and ruler on different scales. If you don’t wish to draw it, you can easily print, buy or borrow this paper also known as “triangular dotted paper” found in many a maths department’s store cupboard!
Here are the five I show you in the video with links to David Wade’s photo archive:

If you want to know how many more can be drawn visit, Brian Wichmann’s website, www.tilingsearch.org. It enables you to do a general search, I picked the final option under “All angles of the pattern a multiple of:” 60 degrees, pressed “Submit” and received images of 202 patterns, all ones that can be drawn on Isometric paper - amazing!

This is beyond fascinating!!! As a child, I never imagined such beautiful patterns could be drawn in such a simple manner, just by using a ruler and a compass. Thank you for this tutorial ♥
Thank you very much, Samira. You are a terrific, clear teacher and with my love of art and geometry you inspire me to try new things :) Art + logic = beauty. As well as painting these as you do so beautifully these designs would also work very well for patchwork and quilting.
very welcome! totally agree on the beauty of this intersection!🥳
Geometry is SO divine! Thank you, a lovely lesson.

Thank you so much for these videos. They’re brilliant for a beginner like myself. Excited to do more drawings now

I found you last year and I’ve since then, tried to work up the courage to start drawing your patterns! It’s almost Ramadan, so I think this is the perfect thing to center you during the fasts. Thank you SO much!
Wonderful! thank you so much and have a blessed Ramadan!
This is really excellent. You are a superb teacher!!! I have often wondered how to draw an isometric grid. I am really looking forward to trying this, and making up some tile patterns. Absolutely brilliant, thank you!!

Very beautiful and interesting work. Thank u.
very welcome!
I am taking this process to start figuring out my geometric embroidery design. Thanks. I should be able to do one grid and then loads of designs. Thank you.
wonderful thanks so much for th lovely feedback
These are called tree foil weaving. Hexagonal weaving is one of the most complex strategies in parametric façade design. Arabs already mastered this craft. Our contribution could start with the projections over columns and curved surfaces. Cathedrals in England have few of these.
Excellent work as usual. :3
Thank you! Again I'm not sure what your terms are as I know trefoil weavinga nd patterns to be something else. Also Arabs were only some of the peoples who excelled and moved this art form forward... many cultures spanning europe, africa and asia were involved.
thank you for your video!! I have tried all of these patterns!! XD
very welcome!! so glad to know you've tried them all... amazing!
Samira awesome work with awareness

Wonderful Fascinating 🎉

MashaAllah beautiful.
thank you so much 😁
This is so great. Thank you for sharing. What is your recommendation on get something like this on to a 10ft x 10ft wall?
no idea...perhaps another UA-cam video by big scale artists
Hace más de 1000 años, cuando la cultura árabe era respetable y creativa, lograron estas maravillas. Lo de La Alhambra es fascinante.
ok
i try it inshaAllah
Assalamualaikum
Thank you so much !

wa alaikum asalaam, how cool! glsd you're able to revive something you used to do!
Thanks samira you smart
very welcome!
I will try
i love it
Magnificent....
Could you do this demonstration on an octagan style where you make a grid with squares rather than triangles? Thank you!
have you seen video #16, #17, #18? i think that maybe what youre after.
@@samiramian Thank you! Yes this is what I meant! I purchased your online class and I wanted to try tiling this way rather than tracing it. I appreciate your help!
😍💞 l love it...
thank you so much!😁
Your art work is awesome...which brand water colour is best in tile illustration??
so many to choose from! see www.samiramian.uk/equipment for a few recommendations
@@samiramian thanks 😊
Can you please tell how did you teach yourself?
Awsome
I tryed and done i am very Happy but it took one week to understand
bravo! well done!
wow - erm what were you doing there with the spoon? help? I got a tad lost there! thankyou! :)
using it as a burnisher to rub the pattern from the upside tracing paper on to the watercolour paper😁
@@samiramian ohhhh okidoke! i sooo have to try drawing these...thank you for all your amazing work! SUPER INSPIRED!!! You've helped to wake my inner child who rejoices in this type of mathematical art! whooop! Much love to you and thank you!
Is this also fit into the topic tessellation?
yes👍😁
Mohammad Aljanabi is a great source too.
I know this and mention his work often
@@samiramian He's an institution in the field. I use him for my approach to Islamic pattern. His explanations are neat.
Also the university and course you took?
please see www.samiramian.uk/about 😊

Videolar çok keyifli açıklamari Türkçe altyazılı olarak da ayarlayabilir misiniz
Thank you! I dont know the turkish language and I dont know how to do this automatically! In the meantime, please do see the work of serapekizler.com/ she has excellent books aswell!
Which kind of paper you were using ?
for painting 300gsm cold press watercolour paper, for drawing, any smooth paper - I use 90gsm copier paper.
Здравствуйте Самира.. А где у вас можно скачать сетки..прямые линии сетки
type in Isometric paper PDF and you should get many different results and options to print.
How it is three to right and three to left which point not explaining exactly please try again briefly
i think you got it!
which colour you used for it ?
i use a lot of different materials see www.samiramian.uk/equipment

ASSALAMU ALAIKUM . Please , is there a way to find out the meaning of these shapes ? JAZAKALLAHU KAIRAN
there isnt a singular meaning or any meaning to the shapes for all the different times and peoples that created them. So wider reading would be helpful for you to see the contexts they came from. I bave some recommended books on www.samiramian.uk/books
@@samiramian jazakallahu kairan for the reply . sorry to be a pain , do you know the origin of these shapes , who drew it first etc , shapes are philosophical to me , I do see meanings in them . Jazakallahu Kairan.
@@lglglglglglg7353 Read the books I've suggested😊
Why is it so difficult to get accuracy! Sigh. 😩
keep practicing! and check your tools, light and eyesight too
Samira Mian will do!! ❤️
It's called a trapezoid
it? what is it? Also trapezoid is US English for Trapezium, UK English
