After I'm done with a painting I scrape all the leftover colors that I have mixed into little puddles of warm and cool greys. I also wipe my brushes off on a blank canvas. When I started this painting I had a couple of weeks worth of these spare colors, and a very interesting and dark canvas. In a way this portrait is an amalgamate of my paintings. All the experiance from the other paintings went into this portrait by using those colors. A kinda alternative way to symbolize oneself by means of color, instead of objects.5hours

Well I'm happy with some of the colors. I tried to use as much color theory as I could. There's a few things I'd like to fix but its gone now. Thats what you get for doing something the day its due. No time to make changes.
