This experiential paper describes using computer graphics and animation to motivate students taking their first programming course. An artistic context encourages students to create expressive images and animations. Their creative work consists in first abstracting a piece of art as a paper sketch, which they then abstract into code. Assessing the artistic merit of this activity will help our research community quest to better understand aesthetic, perception and meaning of visual representations [DS10].
