I decided to paint a portrait of Julius Caesar for an English presentation. I was supposed to explain why I chose to paint Caesar, what was significant about him, and why I chose the medium that I did. I feel that I could have done much better in my presentation because I did not expect to be nervous, but I was. I began to speak very fast and forgot to explain the significance of Caesar. However, I feel that my portrait captures Caesar very well. I chose the color red to express his power as well as to resemble the blood when he was murdered. I chose to paint a more modern portrait of Caesar because I had seen a video on Youtube of someone painting in the same style. I chose to use acrylic on canvas because that was what the person I saw used.
