(iii) KOHSEI (Basic Art & Design) using Fibonacci progression

The Fibonacci progression is also easy to use in drawing.The sum of the previous term and the 2nd previous becomes the next term. Therefore, for example it can be applied to a KOHSEI (Basic Art & Design) of parallel lines. When spaces between 3 parallel lines are 2cm and 3cm, the next straight line parallel to them has the spacing of 2+3=5 (cm). Then, the next line is drawn with an interval of 3+5=8 (cm). Like this, the KOHSEI (Basic Art & Design) can easily drawn by just a divider or a scale.

This is a comfortable and intermediate progression which is neither too slow no too fast.
