Now students can learn how to draw an Op Art Cube, one of the simplest forms of illusion around. Op art, short for optical art, is a style of visual art that uses optical illusions.

Materials for an Op Art Cube Drawing

  • Drawing Paper. This is the good stuff you can buy in bulk for a good price.

  • Black Marker. A permanent marker will give you a dark black color.
  • Crayons. The larger packs are nice for more color choices.
