Picasso Assignment

Process Photos



1.  I chose orange as my monochromatic and I had the analogous as my accent colour. I chose this because I wanted to make the colours pop out and look bright, orange is the best colour for that purpose. I used the outline to direct the attention of the viewer and make things pop out. Overall the main reason I chose orange is because you can tint it and make many different types of it.

2.  A lot of my shape was inspired from the horse in Guernica. The twisted head in my horse was the the major piece inspired from that painting. The major problem I encountered was the size of my horse. I chose to make a smaller horse from the beginning not knowing I would be painting it. I had trouble keeping the paint in the lines, but I used the outliner to cover up those mistakes. The second problem I encountered was the smudging of paint around the edges of the which is covered up by jagged edges.  What I was really pleases with was the improvement I made in mixing colours, I was able to make the colours I wanted. Overall I am very pleased with my final piece.
