Geometry is an exploration of truth, the kind that is self-evident and universal. Where there is universal truth, there is also great beauty and from this a feeling of sacredness naturally arises. In this class you will learn everything you need to know to draw and experience the sacredness of geometry.

You can draw in this class using a pencil, paper, compass, straightedge (aka ruler) and/or using a free iOS app. I will mostly use the app for the practical reason that it is far clearer to observe what I am doing viewing my recorded iPad Pro screen than filming my drawing board. That said, I really enjoy using the app that I'm recommending; it's a great balance between simplicity and functionality.

Euclidea: Sketches is a 100% free iOS app for drawing on iPhones and iPads.

To follow along with this course, you are welcome to use this app (or use another computer drawing or CAD program), or draw by hand using the time-tested instruments of pencil, paper, compass and straightedge.

The following books are mentioned in the course; they're not required reading, but these are great books. If you end up loving geometry, you'll might want to eventually read some or all of these:

Drawing Geometry by Jon Allen ISBN 9780863156083
