Tom Friedman's Twisted Math Art

Nov 18, 2011 12:09 AM

Tom Friedman is one of my favorite artists. He's got a great sense of humor, and his work is meticulous and beautiful. He forays into Math Art, and from a partisan perspective, he seems to be inspired by mathematics, but the end results are more of a whimsical twist than a mathematically "correct" execution. But I could be totally wrong. Comment below and fill me in.

Note: Friedman came to mind when I came across Math Craft admin Cory Poole's pencil art… I'm dying for some pencil art projects! They're awesome.
