Drawing Project 3:
Mickey's Kaleidoscope

Design Problem

At Disney World, many examples of graphic design can be found.  One such example is shown in these photographs which were taken at Downtown Disney.

Unfortunately, this kaleidoscope tower was damaged so badly during the Fall of 2004 by Hurricanes Charlie, Francis and Jean that it has been torn down.  So, we are going to use the grid drawing technique to recreate it on paper.
