Blue Self Portrait

I've been toying with various color concepts of late and this is one example. The idea was to draw myself in the traditional complementary colors of blue and orange, and that's all I was thinking when I did this piece. David, however, upon seeing this work on the easel just had to ask if I was drawing myself as a character from James Cameron's Avatar, a movie I have never seen nor have any desire to ever see. Yuck. Way to ruin an exercise in creative freedom.
