Self Portrait: Using acrylic paint, I took a monotone picture of myself, and painted it to the best of my ability. Here, I learned how to mix colors further than I have before, how to create realistic skin tones, and how to use darker colours to create shading and the illusion of a 3-Dimensional space on a 2-Dimensional piece. The art elements I used included color, texture, value, and space which created design techniques like balance and contrast. This was a lot of fun to paint, especially with my enjoyment and wish to improve my drawings of people. It was a step forward to developing more of a realistic style with people rather than the "cartoonish" style I've grown used to.
