Objectives:

initials.    

To create different patterns and lines to illustrate the vibrating effect complementary colours have on
each other.

Resource:

liners and rulers. Additional coloured backing paper to frame work once completed.

Method:

Place and arrange the initial cards to overlap in the centre of the page and trace around them.  Draw
lines coming from the initials to divide up the space. Fill these spaces with different patterns.
Colour in by using as many different colours to make it vibrant and give the effect of movement.
