Enliven

This is another project for school. Gueeze it was hard. I had to paint it from a black and white photograph. It was an exercise to get me more in touch with the tone value of various colors and the cors used in skin pigments. But also to see what colors I can imagine and exadurate. That part of it made it REALLY fun because I could be more expresive in the colors I chose. I don't know what his name is so I am going to call this one Enliven because I consider giving somebody color a revitalization or a new life if you will. Plus, this guy looks like he is energized to me. I was finished in 1 & 1/2 weeks in acrylic paints. I hope you all enjoy it and have a fantastic day!
