Michelle, like the rest of the class, I find the blue panel to be the strongest for several reasons. First, the circles overlap here, and that gives us a nice sense of depth. Second, the colors feel more coherent here -- more considered rather than arbitrary. And finally, the wet-on-wet quality of the blue panel is very evocative of your music. The other two panels are much less strong to me. The change in color doesn't seem to make sense, and I think especially the green violates the integrity of the whole. I wish you had just stuck with the motifs in that blue panel; a whole piece like that would have been stunning. And finally, since this was your final project, I wish you had taken the time to crop the paper to get a nice clean image to present. Presentation matters -- please remember that!
