In Adobe Illustrator make 2 drawings on one page. Choose one design from each of the following 3 groups and copy it as accurately as possible. For Extra Credit make your own design based on an animal of your choice.
1. Choose a Haida design to copy. Use the pen tool to trace the outlines and close your shapes to fill with color.
2. Choose a Zuni pot design and try to copy a piece of the pattern and repeat it across the page.
EXTRA CREDIT: Make your own design for the 3RD drawing -- using what ever style you want. If you want to make your own in a Haida influence, or your own rug design, or your own pottery motif -- be creative!
