The thing that I was not really sure about during this project but I tried anyway was the tiger. I have never done an animal before and I was nervous to try it. I was really nervous about painting it because I don't have a steady hand and I thought I was going to mess it up. Also I wanted to add color to my piece aside from greens and blues so i decide to use red. I wanted to blend it well but I did not want it to be completely obvious. So I decided to use the red in some bushes and go over it with different shades of green to blend it and it ended up working. I stepped back and analyzed it right before I added in the blue background. I had to check to make sure my piece contained everything I wanted before I moved on so I would not have to add things over the dark blues. Also I analyzed it when I was done with the background to see what I had to go over because some blue got over my trees and vines. I really noticed that I messed up when I stepped back and looked at my piece after I finished the blue background. I realized that I messed up with one of the trees because the blue overlapped it and made the tree look bad. So I had to touch it up and keep messing with it to get it to look like it did before. I asked for feedback from my table-mates Anna, Soni, and Rachel. They helped me a lot and encouraged me to keep going when I just wanted to put my knee through my whole piece. They were the ones that told me to add brighter greens and add red. Also they helped choose my background colors and what to do with them. When I wasn't confident about anything they gave me feed back for what needed to be tweaked a little and that helped me a lot with this piece. It took a lot of patience but they helped me through the whole thing. I wouldn't have liked my piece as much if I didn't have them to help me.
