Is one of the images you posted the correct look and another one the “lower resolution” one?  
Did you set a stroke color / weight when drawing circles?

Ah… I think it may look different when you draw ten circles all in one frame and when you draw the same ten circles in ten different frames. Something worth trying.

ps. I wrote a [class to draw thick lines](https://openrndr.discourse.group/t/drawing-per-vertex-colored-meshes-and-variable-thickness-lines/266/3).
