Hi Leslie,
It is me again. I forgot to make some comments about your underpainting.
I believe that there is something wrong with the drawing of the fingers, the length of the phalanges (bones) look anatomically incorrect.
Regarding how to paint curly hair, Leonardo said that you should paint it like running water.
I'll be interested in seeing how your painting comes out and then I would try to do one myself. The one I'm working on right now is based on a technique discussed in this Forum by using Verdaccio for the underpainting. Right now I'm in the process of applying color to the underpainting and it has gotten rather complicated because when I apply opaque color to the areas of light, the underpainting gets covered and I lose it. Then I wonder if it was necessary to have an underpainting after all.
