Description 3: I see a square shaped mask,its the light blue/sky blue, with the color navy blue,white, and red as accent colors.

Analysis 1- The principles and elements that were used are Empahis in the lips and a element would be Shape because of the shape of the chin.

Analysis 2- Principle would be the movement of the colors that are used and the element would be the shape of the eyes

Analysis 3- Principle used is pattern because of the design of the mask,the element used is color because of the vibrant colors used.
