This was very well done. Your color manipulations and overall gif format really adds movement to the piece, and also helps those colors really pop out at the viewer, which was a central idea to fauvism. The process was very interesting to read about, and I am going to explore the tool you used to manipulate the pixels because as you said, it does seem like a powerful tool. Your documentation was very thorough and helped me understand exactly what you were thinking, and why you made what you made. I think you were definitely creative in coming up with this piece and you did a great job!
I think your approach towards the color of the art piece was very creative. You had a nice investigation on colors of Matisse's painting by rendering through all spectrum with a gif file. I felt I was looking at a pop art. One thing about it is that sometimes there are some fuzzy areas in the colored background, but I think that was how Matisse's original work was colored. As a person who tried to recreate Henri Matisse's artwork, I totally agree with how you described him in your documentation. It was very in depth, and I could easily follow your thought process and approach towards the project. Nice work.
