9/26 Research Question Reflection

I have enjoyed searching and finding books for my research question. In the midst of creating that relation between my research question and my audience, I have found so much more of a relation to it myself. I have not really given much thought as to the effect of art within the mathematics field before, nevertheless I am a person who has an aesthetic learning style, hanging on to pictures that depict what I am learning. Therefore, now that I am actually shining the light on that area and exploring the topic, I am enlightened! So far I have found an artist who is very influential, not only to artists alone, but mathematicians. That is a great find for my research topic because it will be able show concrete evidence of math and art’s cohesive relationship. I am realizing that I probably should find a book about the positive and potential effects of pictures and visual art in mathematics, because it would further my point immensely. With that said, I have rethought my research question in the sense of narrowing it down and finding a more relatable and pleasing argument. I look forward to bringing all this information and discoveries to my research paper!
