Gesture Painting

I really liked doing this assaignment. Working with paint was a nice change to what we had been doing. First we chose partners; my partner was Logan. We taped a long strip of white paper to the wall and then painted out partners using proportions. After that we painted with funky colors to really make it pop. I really, really, really like my painting. :) I think I got the proportions correct and the paint made it look really cool. Overall, it was very successful.



The only thing that didn't work was that I made my painting too big and didn't have enough room for the feet. If I were to do it over I would start higher on the paper and make it a bit smaller. The most difficult part of the painting was the hands. I'm terrible at hands! So I kind of made them stumps instead. I learned from this piece how to correctly do proportions and improved my painting skills.
