The inspiration for this piece was from Rory Kurtz. This is was originally a picture of my friend, Morgan Jackson, and she wanted me to take a picture of her looking at her phone in Honors Orchestra. It was in color when I first took the picture but she edited it so it can be in black and white when she posted it on facebook. I took that same concept of it being in black and white ,and I decided to corporate some color into it. So as a result, I painted the background and the color of her skin in black and white. Then, I painted her clothes, boots, earrings, and phone in color since she is the main focus of the piece. I am really satisfied of the overall result of the painting. The only thing that I would change about it is that I should have painted her face in color along with the rest of her clothes.
