"Its not always Blue "

For my 3rd project I decided to challenge my self and make a self portrait , something I haven't done . originally i was going to paint it using the original color i had for the picture i choose but i kept messing up and decided to go with the style i am use to .
   The elements i used for this piece was the principle of contrast .In order to add contrast to my piece i decided to put newspaper for my back ground and then decided to choose cool colors that will make my self pop out more , so i went different shades of blue and decided to add orange as a high light .
This piece was by far the funnest piece to make , by challenging my self and trying a new technique   ive never used before .
