A book to bring the joy of programming to creative people.

With step by step instructions for beginners and tiny programs, fundamental programming concepts are introduced in bite sized sketches.

In later chapters, these program sketches become powerful drawing programs, capable of generating new images for 3D printing, CNC, and more.

An exploration of code as art.


Make Art with Python is the scenic, fun route to learn programming with Python.
