Since I was doing this in a digital machine, I decided that using an iPad would be the best since Kooning did his art not with care, but with aggressive strokes and I wouldn’t be able to do that with a mouse as well. I drew a woman and used many colors. The only time I looked at the original painting was when I first learned the name of the artist, and I was careful not to look at it again because I didn’t want to be affected too much. I only drew from what I had in mind: Abstract art with a woman that doesn’t obey the stereo-type women in the paintings. I also used a special pen option because I felt a simple one would not be able to convey the abstractness. Kooning has used pictures of women smiling on the mouth of the woman in the painting, but they don't look happy, so I wanted my woman to have an expression close to a smile but not exactly.
