Evaluation
During the time I was painting I have faced lots of difficulties and some areas where I found the work easy and straight forward. While painting the background I found that part an easy task and I enjoyed it the most. Trying to mix colours together to reach the tone of the colour you wanted was quite tricky but it was fun to play around with the colours. Masking out the pictures on the background was the hardest part for me as you had to make sure...
