Hi. I am Ates Gulcugil, a retired electronic engineer. I have been self-studying painting for three years now.

Jay Hambidge has shown us that Dynamic Symmetry was used in the Greek classical period for making compositions for temples and vases. With the exception of the simple usage of golden ratio for canvas dimentions and figure placement, it was believed that the technique had been lost until its rediscovery by him in 1920.

However I believe I have shown that the Rectangle of the Whirling Squares and the Logarithmic spiral which are part of Dynamic Symmetry have been widely and continuously used by artists from at least the 13th up to the 20th century. I believe this discovery will change our interpretation of many works of art.
