I'm a little surprised that you used that photo. I like your interpretation.

What I like especially in your work is that you have your own ztyle. (I might have mentioned that before).

I love all the colors. You'd think they'd be out of place, but when it's together, you don't even notice that there's blue and green in the face. They're just shadows!

Thx XD Blue and green was based off of his online colors, just like purple on you, and I *tried* yellow on Clarence.

I don't even see the colors. You have a really good ability to look at a photo and take it apart to recreate it stylistically.

Haha thanx! :D BTW, if you really enjoy art that has colors that work together in weird, yet fitting ways, you might like Henri Matisse.

Yes! And actually, your work reminds me a lot of this piece.

It reminded me of myself too! I saw it this summer at the SFMOMA and I loved Henri Matisse!

At school, they tell us that every oil painting should have cold and warm colours in the face, but the only problem I find is remembering which parts of the face are warm and cold (badly phrased, but hopefully it makes enough sense) .

Warm colors usually go in the lighter parts, cool in the darker, but there are always exceptions. ;)

Bump!
