Printout and mount.
PRESENTATION REQUIREMENTS:

ART HISTORY:
The use of a repeated over-all design has been utilized by many different cultures to decorate their architecture, jewelry, and clothing. The Egyptians used it to decorate their temples and clothing and Near East as a glazed decoration on the walls of their cities just to mention some used in the past. Present day use is about the same, but instead of block prints, silk-screen printing, and hand painting the designs on a surface, the artist can create repeated designs with any image utilizing computer technology. Computer technology has permitted the use of repeated design in paper, wallpaper, television screen backgrounds, and the usual uses of architecture and clothing.
GRADING SCALE: Based on 100% of the project. Each part is 20%.
