Jasper Johns and the American Flag

We finished our flag project inspired by Jasper Johns' Flag from 1954-55.  Check out this video for some background on the history of the artist and this piece.

First we had to practice using a ruler to measure and make straight lines.  It's harder than you would think.

 Here is an animated discussion about the difficulties of straight lines.

 Some very focused artists/mathematicians hard at work.
 A little encouragement was all these guys needed from each other.
 All done!
 A little help is always nice to have.
Day two was a bit chaotic.  Pictures to follow.
