Digital Painting

1. The best thing about my artwork is the background, the reason that I say this is because the Wolf itself lacks color the wolf just is mostly grey.

2. The weakest thing about my artwork is the blandness of the wolf with all of his grey which was a mistake on my part because as I was messing around with tools I ended up messing up the color of the fur.  The  reason I say this is the weakest thing about my artwork is the fact that if it wasn't like this the wolf  would be able to have way more color which would make the piece way more interesting instead of bland.

3. The way that I can improve upon this in the future is by making the colors brighter and more saturated to make the picture pop out more. Another way that I could fix this error in my piece is by not using  the sponge tool which would keep the colors in place.

4.  The tools that I used on Photoshop to make this  piece were the move tool, paint brush tool, paint dropper tool, mixer brush tool and sponge tool.

5. I was able to provide a smooth transition of value and color is by using the mixer brush tool and this allowed the colors to blend together smoothly.  The transition of colors in this piece are kind of odd like how it doesn't look so smooth. The way that I was able to creature texture was by downloading a fur brush that allowed me to get the effect of fur.

6. The easy thing about this assignment was the painting of the parts that you have highlighted and just fill them in. The reason that I say this was the easiest thing about is because it didn't really take much brain power besides filling in between the lines.
7.The hardest thing about this assignment was trying to find the changes in shades if color which was very tedious and annoying, I also thought mixing was pretty weird at least for when I was using the fur brush.
8. If I could do this assignment again I would completely change everything.  I would try to make all the colors way more vibrant just to overall give the piece a more interesting look. 
9. I would rate my effort on this project to be a 8 out of 10 because i feel like that I tried awhile in order to complete this assignment trying tidy up some things, it's just that I messed around a little too much and ended up messing the piece up with sponge tool, but overall I tried but I probably could have tried more.
