Evaluation:My inspiration for this was a combination of the colours from the sky in Edvard Munch's 'The Scream' and the brush strokes in the work of Otto Dix. I love the combination of colour used and would like to incorporate this technique into future work as I feel it is simple and effective. I may incorporate elements of the technique into my contemporary design.
