In this video, I demonstrate how to construct three variations of five inscribed circles inside a circle - five large tangent circles inside the circumscribed circle; 5 small tangent circles inside the inscribed circle & 6 small 1/3 circles inside the inscribed circle. I hope you try and enjoy the constructions! ko-fi.com/mathsimum
Variation comparison: 5 Inscribed circles
Celebrating the Power of Form Tutorials We start off Celebrating The Power of Form by drawing the very first design out of one hundred in the book. It is one of the most iconic and recognisable designs with its sixfold tangent flower shapes and inscribed hearts on the outside. It is the perfect intermediate pattern to learn - not too easy but not overly challenging, it is just following each step and enjoying the process. The traditional Gothic design will be a lovely opportunity to apply an established artistic style, or the chance to venture into a completely new and contrasting aesthetic.

Optical illusions have fascinated humans for centuries in profound ways. Their study dates back to ancient Greece, where philosophers like Aristotle observed how visual perception could be deceived. However, it wasn’t until the 19th and 20th centuries that scientists and psychologists systematically explored illusions to understand how the brain interprets visual stimuli. In fine art, impossible objects are designed to defy logic and three-dimensional space. In this course I will teach you how to draw a cubed hexagram inspired by the Penrose Triangle and Reütersvald's impossible figure, using a ruler and a compass, and how to decorate it emphasising the 3D effect.
