Self portrait - edited and completed

1:35 am pacific 





The first painting didn't receive a high mark as I hoped for. The reasons were the spiral was conflicting with portrait orientation. The original spiral was horizontal on a vertical picture plane. The original yoyo was too separated from the rest of the painting so I added more blues to the orange. In addition to the spiral direction / orientation, the values were too inconsistent. The overlay had to either be all darker or all lighter than the values of the rest of the painting. I don't know for sure if I got the corrections needed fixed but hopefully it looks improved!
