For this project we had to do a self portrait. I decided that instead of working on a realistic piece I wanted to play with the colors. I wanted to use complementary colors so I used green and red then I used blue for the rest of the skin because I liked the way it looked with the red. It was difficult to get the nose to look correct because of the angle the photo was taken. It was also difficult to show shadows only using blue. By the end it had 15 layers of paint on it, but I'm happy with the result.
