Self portrait



This picture (1 of 3) is a mixed media design, photograph original +photoshop = art.
I liked the lighting so I ran with it. I tried increasing the amount of light till I found an angle that I liked. The shaddows create a sense of deepness while the expression says nothing. My eyes are actually a muddy green-brown but I felt it needed more color. The color choice reguarding green, is to say that it's a color that I believe says versitile and willing.

(Photograph #2) Black&white... conveys a sense of smug anticipation, and a mixture of relief and carelessness. I made it black and whote, because it gave the viewer more reason for their eyes to be drawn to me and not the use of color.
