Not medieval shading experiments

I really wasn't sure how this would turn out. This is a rather short cup and I wasn't sure how to decorate it. I was cruising around Pinterest waiting for some inspiration to hit and stumbled across some beautiful mendalas. Eager to try some of the shapes I'd seen, I used multiple shades of blue and blended them into each other. I then went over with some  dots and lines to provide an additional design element. Most of the blue came out darker than I thought it would and the light blue dots are a little thick as they were applied with a paint brush. Still, I'm rather happy with the outcome.

One of my friends said this looked like snow so next time I'll trial some snowflake designs in the blue instead.
