Introduction: Pi Artwork
There's always art that can be found in math, in this project you can create your own unique artwork that's based on Pi!
Supplies
You'll need:
- Graph paper
- color pencils/markers
- ruler
Step 1: Draw a Frame
Draw a box with a pencil or other writing tool. This will be where you'll be coloring in.
Step 2: Choose Colors
Choose 10 distinct colors to represent each of the 10 digits, from 0-9.
Step 3: Make a Legend
Create a legend on the top (or bottom) of your page. Assign a color to each digit. This will be used to tell what each color in your art work is supposed to represent.
Step 4: Color in the Grid
Now it's time to create your Pi Artwork. Color in each grid based on what number would have been written there. For example, the first 5 digits of pi are 3.1415, and in my legend 1 is red, 2 is red-orange, 3 is orange, 4 is yellow, and 5 is light green. So my first 5 squares are going to be colored in orange, red, yellow, red, light green.
Step 5: Keep Coloring...
It's a long process but it's also really calming! You can color as many or as little rows as you like.
Step 6: Finished!
Your Pi Artwork is done! You can frame it or put up on your wall. I colored in the first 400 digits of pi but you can always add more rows.
