we had to illustrate feelings/emotions through color. picking different angles, and areas of the face for each portrait.

blue being moody/sad. green.. with envy. yellow/purple for happiness and red for anger.

If you put all 4 of those into one painting with the hot colors diagonal to eachother it would look really good.

anti fishstick · 10-05-2003, 10:32 PM

yes actually, that's exactly how i displayed them on the display board when i presented for critique

marsfyre · 10-05-2003, 10:39 PM

awsome ^__^ I really like these..nice work.. wish I could paint =|

bermuDa · 10-05-2003, 11:01 PM

that's really cool ^_^ I really like the violet one!

the green one is really cool too

I wish I could draw ears.

anti fishstick · 10-05-2003, 11:04 PM

the green one looks like the green giant

i should have stylized it more by using really frantic, splotchy paint marks or something. to make it even more characteristic of jealousy. but bah it was the night before class and had to paint really quickly before 3am approached ;P i paint what i see. i never thought about a style then.

Good color schema. I sense a brooding warmth in your work. It reminds me of some of the symbolist painters like Odilon Redon or even Munch.

Carry on.

sadistikdreams · 10-06-2003, 04:37 PM

I like the red.

little limey · 10-07-2003, 03:49 PM

I had no idea you were so talented! I haven't been on this board for a while and I've only seen you talkin bout armpit hair

tekaweni · 10-08-2003, 12:35 PM

That is really good. I know nothing about art but yours stands out. As someone else noted, positioning the colour themes properly brings out the best effect. Well done!

maximus · 10-12-2003, 05:02 PM

those are some really cool paintings, good job!

clifclav · 10-13-2003, 01:22 PM

i liked the way the nostrils were flared in the red one. that subtle difference conveyed more emotion than the color even. well done.

mb99usa · 10-14-2003, 09:56 AM

Nice. I like the color scheme and the angles you chose are very interesting.

Sleepyjack · 10-21-2003, 05:05 AM

Wow, it's amazing how all the colours and subtle characteristics work together. Although i don't really know much about art myself, i can definitley feel those emotions when i look at them. Especially the red one, good work

petergriffin24 · 10-24-2003, 11:24 AM

yeah I like them sure is better than what I would've churned out
