Exaggerated Perspective

Peer comments:
- good shapes
- quality shading
- vibrant color scheme (gives it mood)
- fine line quality
- background not overdone (can still focus on the center of the painting)

I like my exaggerated perspective piece because I stepped away from my usual style and took a new approach to working with acrylic. It wasn't easy for me because I'm so used to making my pieces realistic. However, I'm really glad that I decided to experiment because now I know that I'm able to branch out within a medium as opposed to just sticking to my usual style. I also used a completely different color scheme this time, stepping away from the greys, dark blues, and blacks. In fact, I used almost no dark/cool colors in my painting. One thing I would change is skin color of the hand. The colors I used to paint it are a bit different from those I used on the face. To be honest, I ran out of the needed colors paint when I was working on the hand so I had to improvize a little. Even though the hand colors and the face colors don't match, I'm still glad I experimented so much with the painting.
