Symmetry and Butterflies

Hope you are enjoying the summer. Recently I moved to Edinburgh and I have started visiting random things. One of the first things I wanted to see was the Edinburgh Butterfly & Insect World. Butterflies are some of my favorite creatures ever. Beside their incredible beauty, I find them extremely interesting (especially the process caterpillar...

Geometry & Art

During my stay in Romania this summer, just before the wedding, I was nicely walking randomly on the streets of my home town when I discover some interesting drawings just outside an art exhibition. From far away it looked like some random colors on a piece of paper, but when I got closer I was...

Almost Summer

Yesterday I finally finished my last essay as a student and my excitement tended to plus infinite. I cannot believe how fast time has passed and how excited I felt.

The Mathematical Beauty of Nature in a Coloring Book

I think you already know that I am a huge lover of mathematics in art, especially when the pieces of art present the mathematical connections found in nature.

Escher’s Mathematical Art

Drawing special Mathematics

In the middle of the week I thought that just a small post will be the best. This post is going to be another art related one. In the past months I have been following a tumblr blog: Regolo. I have to confess that I know nothing more about the author than the post he/she makes...
