1. "Skyholes" of light emerging behind the tangled, random ends of dark hair. Burt Silverman does this often in his paintings. He's wonderful at it.
2. The pink sliver of the lower lid edge as it meets the eyeball.
3. The protruding middle of the upper lip, directly under the philtrum. I love seeing this on a mouth.
Who else but portrait painters can talk about stuff like this? Thanks for starting this topic, Tom!
