A: How might other people’s associations withcolour affect their perception of this
portrait?” (A2.1)

Q: Usually cool colours represent sadness and coldness, and because of that the woman in the painting could be staring uninvitingly at you. Warm tones are usually are inviting and cozy, so the warm colours could draw you into the sculpture.
Q: Looking at your colour wheel, what are 3 areas you are most proud of and what are 3
areas if you had more time you would rework and why?

A: I was most proud of my red, yellow, and orange because I felt like the shades were really even and they gradually went into the tints of the colour wheel. I was least proud of my blue-violet because I don't like how you can see the brush marks. I feel the same about the violet and blue.
