Monochromatic Colors - Carrie and Kasandra

In this project, we worked with mixing a color with whites and blacks to get tints and shades of the original color.  We started by picking a geometric shape (at least 8) and overlapping.  We mixed the colors and then applied them to our paper, following the requirements of 3 tints, 3 shades, and at least one of the original color.  Once our projects dried, we outlined them in black sharpie. 

An extension activity for this lesson could be in math class working with geometry.  How do you find the area of the shapes that you drew?  How do you find the area of the circle that is being overlapped?
