An Easy Way to Introduce Inkscape Drawing Program to Youth and Adults
Inkscape is a fun, free and very powerful vector drawing program that runs on all major computer platforms: Linux, Macintosh and Windows. This program can give you endless hours of enjoyment, even if you're not an artist. And if you develop mastery of using Inkscape, someone wants to pay you money to create graphics for them.
One of the best ways of introducing youth and adults to Inkscape is via the many excellent screencasts that show and explain how to use Inkscape. A very well made screencast about Inkscape was uploaded to YouTube yesterday. This screencast explains how to create stellations using Inkscape. Stellations are pretty polygons created from other polygons. Here is a Wikipedia article that shows some pretty 3D stellations.
I can see youth who start making stellations with Inkscape start wondering what else this drawing program can do. Everyone needs a starting point, and I can't think of a better starting point than stellations. Even children as young as kindergarten or first grade might want to jump into creating stellations.
