Artist's Comments

My color theory project. I had to use blue, and red, and green to create a piece that I could apply some color psychology theories to. I was thinking Green Eggs and Ham, you know? Like, ugly food, but only this time I don't think Sam-I-am would even eat this. Green sushi cannot be healthy for you.

The proportions are wacky, yeah? I did this all with a tablet. I think I’ve gotten way better at coloring with it, but I can draw only so-so still. I have a much better time drawing traditionally. But I’m just making excuses now, which is bad. Anyway, critique away please.

JO! Wonderful, and though I don't have any useful critics for you, I do have something I wanted to say:

His left (my left) eye look off. Almost like it's too small and too close to his nose. I'm not sure how to pace it, but it just looks a little disproportionate with the other one.

Also, "Herro there, Kerry~"

Yeah, I agree. I messed with it for a while, but it gave me lots of trouble. What's there is a lesser of many evils, not correct really. Thank you!

I absolutely love it! My only criticism is that, as you pointed out already, the left eye seems a bit askew, and it gives the guy's face a somewhat pinched look around his upper nose. I believe that at that angle, it should be around the same size as the right eye, albeit a bit closer to the nose. Then again, I know nada about perspective and facial anatomy, so I could be completely wrong.

The sushi on his plate seems to fade into one another a bit as well, but it's nothing a little more contrast in the rice won't fix(I'm starting to sound like Mrs. Reedy oh god).

The octopus hat, however, is utterly perfect.

Thank you, thank you! I think you're right about the eye. I applied too much perspective too it. Oddness.

I agree totally about the sushi. I confused myself doing it, because I had done it in normal colors, then applied a layer of green on top. forgetting to take into account that I shade a lot using different hues more than different values. Not a mistake I'll make again!
