Making Art Online

Sometimes it can be nice to distract yourself with something fun you can create!

Weavesilk is a site that allows you to make symmetrical art easily with only a mouse

• once at the site, click ‘Draw something’
• in the upper left hand corner, there is a blue dot. However over it – it should say ‘controls’
• click on that – it will show 7 colors, and you can change the color you are working with by clicking on the color you want
• you can also mix colors, by holding onto color with your mouse and dragging it to another dot of color
• you can also play with the bar labeled ‘rotational symmetry’, and turn the ‘mirror across center’ and ‘spiral towards center’ on or off
• draw by clicking in the center and moving your mouse
• hit space to clear the page, and z to undo
