I noticed that with the heavy black outline the pig seems to float in the air rather than lie in the mud. Changing the black to a very dark color might incorporate the foreground objects a little better. The colors alone do an excellent job of providing contrast.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7076787.post-1137968814673087632006-01-22T17:26:00.000-05:002006-01-22T17:26:00.000-05:00I'd consider going into Photoshop and changing the...I'd consider going into Photoshop and changing the image greyscale to see that the pig and mud has the highest contrast? I think you have a beautiful colour pallette though, and lovely design. Perhaps add some bluish orange to the mud? Anyways, keep up the amazing art!Robinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05073298018181106254noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7076787.post-1137856795164807772006-01-21T10:19:00.000-05:002006-01-21T10:19:00.000-05:00Julie, I love the color choices.
