To explore these patterns, choose the multiples to colour from the palette. If Blend is selected, then if a number is a multiple of more than 1 of the selected numbers, any squares with that number are coloured using a combination of the individual multiple colours. Otherwise, the square is coloured according to the largest multiple.
Click Random to randomise the colour palette, or click any colour to choose a particular colour for that multiple.
Select a size for the grid using the slider, and press and hold the Hold to hide numbers button to hide the numbers and just show the pure pattern.
Thinking about and experimenting with the relationship between patterns and numbers is deep and fruitful, for both mathematical understanding and artistic creation, since patterns arise from the same structures that mathematics describes.
