This project was an independent project that I made as a present for my sister Jamie for her birthday. I found the idea on Pinterest, and while the shapes of the dinosaurs aren't my own original art, I found a way to make them my own. I started by covering the boards in black and white Gesso to make sure that there would be even coverage. Then, I traced the shape of the dinosaur and outlined them in black to make a clean frame for the color on the inside. My next step was to mix my colors and I worked really hard to make sure they were more on the pastel side. I had to overcome the challenge of time as I didn't really have a lot of time to work and I was forced to problem solve. I also developed new skills of mixing paint as I had to do trial and error a few times to make sure the color was perfect. I worked collaboratively with the people around me to collect suggestions on different aspects of the dinosaurs and I'm really happy with the way they came out and my sister loves them.
