Beverly Acha Animated Art Lesson

This is an original lesson created in Processing.Javascript using Khan Academy for Code/Art’s middle and high school coded art curriculum. I estimate that this lesson has reached hundreds of students by now, since its inception in 2020!

Inspired by local artist Beverly Acha‘s abstract paintings, I brought to life one of her pieces to teach students to create animations using functions and conditionals.

My original Khan Academy project can be found here.
