                                                                   A Boo Day
First and foremost, the painting was created by Lisa Hebden. It feautures a young girl with a sad complexion. The artist added white to the colors to create tints. As you can see, the colors appear to be mostly faded and worn. Her hair is a mixture of white and beige, a possible variation of yellow. The fact that the artist used this dull coloring rather than bright colors signifies that the overall emotion is cheerlessness. The eyes of the girl look shiny, as if on the verge of tears. Her lips are a dry brown with no sign of a smile. Overall, the skin of the little girl is pale white rather than a creamy peachy color. Clearly, the painting portrays no sign of livelihood.
