Description I wanted a quick end of the year painting, and something to use as a cover page on my portfolio. I was going to take pictures of my friend skateboarding, but the only good place to get a shot was ontop of a wall. The ended up hurting herself trying to get up there, so I ended up going up and she took the shot. The end result was used for this painting. I haven't done a self portrait since going to this school, so it was very fun to do. I wanted it to be very stylized, with a lot of texture and color. I hope that you all enjoy the result.

I think you utilized shading and color very nicely. The resulting atmosphere is very pleasant.

Before you become disoriented by my use of the word "pleasant" let me assure you the things I find pleasant are typically considered depressing but cool.
