The Intuitive Geometry method is the 8 principles for drawing and designing with overlapping circles. The dot matrix notebook has 196 pages and contains 46 line art drawings for coloring. Overlapping circles have been studied since ancient times. We know that two overlapping circles create the almond shape called the vesica pisces from which we can make basic geometric shapes like the square, triangle, hexagon, and pentagon. The Intuitive Geometry method includes spirals, waves, and scaling. Once you master the method's 8 principles you can apply them intuitively and draw anything. Intuitive Geometry is not just about drawing, it is about developing our intuition and learning the fundamental structure of life. Practicing the use of overlapping circles affects our consciousness on all levels, and our ability to become more powerful creators in this world.
