Fibonacci and Composition Leonardo da Vinci, Mona Lisa, c. 150305, oil on panel The rule of thirds is a “rule of thumb” or guideline which applies to the process of composing visual images such as designs, films, paintings, and photographs.
How it works • The guideline proposes that an image should be imagined as being divided into nine equal parts by two equally-spaced horizontal lines and two equally spaced vertical lines, and any important compositional element should be placed along these lines or their intersection. William Turner "Temeraire” 1838
Botticelli, Sandro The birth of Venus c. 1485 Tempera on canvas • Proponents of this technique claim that aligning a subject with these points creates more tension, energy and interest in the composition than simply centering the subject would.
You will make 6 sections in Rhino following the rule of thirds sequence. You can make it just like this one or use different shapes following this sequence.
If you haven’t printed your design by the end of class you will need to sign up with me for a time to use the laser cutter You need to have it printed and ready for next class.

Lesson: Drawing symbols into sections of template Day: 3
Time to inspire! • You should find a quote taped under your desk. • I would like everyone to take turns reading their quote allowed to the class. • Everyone needs to select 3 quotes from other students they find inspiring to write down in sketchbooks.
Sacred • What do you hold sacred? • Has your perception of what makes something sacred changed at all? • How can cultures use the same symbol but apply a different meaning?
