This weekend (during the evenings), I painted this artwork for a friend’s birthday. He really likes colourful, African-inspired things, so I came up with my Kaleidoscope Egg Design to suit his house.
The design was really very simple. I first drew in the shapes and lines
for painting, so that each of my sections was going to be roughly the same
width. And, of course, I painted it on plywood!
Then I started placing my colours. Really, you could use whatever
colours you liked… you just need to make sure that the use of each colour is
distributed evenly throughout the design. For example, here is the first colour
I added (red).
Don't worry about the lines being too perfect.
I used 7 colours in total. I'm very pleased with how it turned out.
Happy painting!
