I found a lot of things interesting about this painting first off that its in black and white I liked that because it really makes the viewer wan tot look more closely at it. I also like all the details that the artists put into this art and all the freedom the viewer has to make it about how they feel and how they can see what thy want to see.

I found this art work interesting because of all the color used and also because of how it looks 3-D.
