Paint artist reflection

     The strongest aspect of my work is the blending of the face because it looks most like the actual picture. It is also blended really well with very similar colors to the original. The aspect of my work that could be improved upon is the feet because they are the least similar to the original picture. I would improve upon this aspect by starting them over and using the eye dropper tool to pick up as many of the colors as i can. Then i would use the blend brush to blend the colors, but i would do my best not to blend too much.

     The easy part of this activity was blocking out the colors to be blended later. I used the eye dropper tool which made it easy to get the right colors I needed to make the penguin look as close to the original picture as possible. The difficult part of this activity was the blending because it was very hard to get the blending just right. For instance sometimes the colors got messed up or something was either blended too little or too much.
    I demonstrated the objective for this project by using the paint brush and the mixer brush tool. I used these tools to create the smooth texture of the penguin. I also used these tools to make different parts of the penguin darker to make it look real and like it has shadows on it. These tools allowed me to make the areas where more sun was hitting the penguin much lighter than other parts. If I could do this project again i would change the blending of the feet by not over blending so that each color could be seen better.
