I really like this piece. I did it over a period of four days where I started sketching the skull the first day, outlining and doing the background the second, and working on the skull the third and four days. I originally had a skull that I was going off of for the main sketch but I kinda just did whatever I wanted after a while. The flower was there to add to it and make the mouth smaller because I couldn't get the teeth or jaw right. But I think that everything is too centered and a bit dark. It was supposed to be dark to give the overall feel of the piece a sadder tone but with the background you can't see any detail or shading.
The added drips where to bring movement to the piece and variety. The monotone colour helps keep the piece together and keeps all the tones close. I really like it but I wish that it was blended better and the mouth looked better. I also wish I would have spent more time on the flower and made it look better.
