Description:

Made in my Intermediate 2D Art Class.

The assignment was to do our own spinoff of a Victor Vasarely print. Most people in my class just did one circle in the middle with different colors, but I chose the hard one. :D This took about a month to finish. I think I started in early March 2007, but I was too stupid to write a date down.

Note: Paint makes paper curl, thus the actual painting curves a bit on the paper so this photo isn't really flat

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Process:

1) Sketch an idea
2) Make a 13x13-inch grid, marking every half-inch
3) Sketch the big circles with a compass
4) Manually draw in the squares on the circle that increase in size
5) Draw a circle in every little square
6) Paint for the rest of your life
7) Cut out painting
8) Mount on black construction paper

Awesome that you took the effort to challenge yourself!

xD Well it's true. I was the last one to finish in my class 'cause I'm so goddamn picky about painting. 8D; And you can see the last parts I painted 'cause they're all rushed and crappy.
(Hint, look at the blue dots on the border. . . Ech).

Lol well it was fun and it was a school assignment so I can't take all the credit for challenging myself. 8D Thank you, though!
