(Super late-but posted)
For my final I wanted to show different expressions that can be seen simply by looking into a person's eyes, because a lot of the time people lie through their teeth and think nothing of it. Yet most of the time if one were to just look into that person's eyes they could see them twitch just a little bit, as if hoping someone will catch them in their lie. For a while when I drew people, or wanted to draw anything, I started with the eyes, because even without the nose or the mouth a lot can still be seen in the ways of silent language.
I used acrylic paint on a stretched canvas, contrasting red/yellow/orange colors in relation to rage, and blue/green/purple colors in relation to surprised. It was a lot of painting with really water thinned out paint and then smudging it with my fingers into the canvas, which was fun and reminded me of charcoal shading. I just wanted to so something that I was proud of that wasn't an apple.
