Hi! Welcome to FMX 210 blog. Warning I have little to no idea what I'm doing but I think that makes it as fun as it is frustrating. Enjoy and be nice :))
Final Product Layers Autoscopy is the images of one's own body or one's face within space, either from an internal point of view, as in a mirror, or from an external point of view. I chose for mine to be an external point of view of what I am striving for. I recently came to the conclusion that I have a hard time relaxing, which is new because I used to be a really laid-back person. Since starting college though I've held myself to a much higher standard and am told I am too hard on myself. This may be because I am in such a close-knit community where I can easily compare so much about myself to others.

I feel if I had a different picture I could have done something similar to Andy Warhol's Marilyn Monroe portrait, especially with the Double Split Complementary palette. The vivid colors give it a pop art feel. The first attempt is the bottom image and I used muted colors which make it seem almost unintentional. For each of the three versions, my favorite element to color was my romper because I think against the black stripes the other color stands out and catches the eye.
