Project 1: Overlaying Shapes
Paint the entire surface one color. Draw a large shape with your pencil and fill in that shape with a new color. Then draw another shape within that shape and fill it in. Keep drawing shapes inside the larger shape, filling each new shape in with a new color. You can let the paint dry between shapes. Or you can paint wet paint on top of wet paint to see how the colors change when they mix!
