RESPONSE TO THE FACE, ARTWORK BY RICH JACOBS.

                   "The Face" is a piece of art on my wall, by an artist named Rich Jacobs.  I love this painting.
First of all, their are only two colors, black and orange. this is great because they go well together, and make each other stand out, which is always a great factor to take into consideration while picking colors for a painting.
                   Another reason i love this artwork is because it has a great poem on the bottom of the canvas:
"maybe the word different just means something else now...(or are things really different?)" This is a great line/poem/quote because it leaves you thinking, and a bit confused.
                
                  A few other things I love about this painting is that it has "rj" written sloppy in a corner, which he does on every one of his paintings, and I like that because it shows thats an original piece, and its kind of like a tag, or trademark. Also, the paper/canvas it is on is a lightish brown color, that makes the painting look 100 times better than it would on plain white.
