Dot Day Project

For my dot day project, I chose to do a square on the class mural. I started by painting my square white so that my colors would look vibrant. Once the paint dried, I started to draw my pattern which are circles that over lap each other, I drew the circles in rings that resemble a target.
Here is a picture similar to what I did:
After I finished drawing my circles, I lightly erased my pencil marks just enough so I can still see the outlines. I then got multiple colors of paint and mixed a certain color to get a variety of different shades. For example I would use blue, and mix it with white, black, or purple, then I would paint the rings. One obstacle that I faced while painting was that there would be a few of us students working on the mural at once so there would constantly be someone erasing which caused the mural to shake and potentially mess up another student. Other than that, I really enjoyed doing this project!
Here is my painting so far:
