Collaborative Mascot Mural

High school and 8th grade art students started off the year with a collaborative mural based on the cobra logo. Each student had a small square of a gridded grayscale copy for reference. First they had to enlarge the small piece onto a 6 inch square and then chose a color scheme with 3 analogous colors (side by side on the color wheel) and followed a plan to add color. Anything that was black on the original copy became a solid color, anything that way gray was filled in with a dense pattern, and anything that was white was filled in with a sparse pattern.

The small sections look really cool on their own but they come together to make something that would have been really difficult to do alone. Working together, we made a really colorful paper mural to brighten up the hallway until we get some bigger projects completed.
