Symbolic Self Portrait

Kevin Repice, Symbolic Self Portrait, 2016, Mixed Media
I learned that using the element of space creates a more centered image and more emphasized picture. I like the Rita's Logo in the top center. I would improve the quality of the watercolors and try to make the paint more solid and cleaner lines.
