Nostrils!
After spending some time rereading posts about underpainting, I came across the post where Karin Wells talks about her copy of an Ingres where the underpainting tones are more midvalue than I made mine. I decided the nostrils in the above painting were too dark in value so I've lightened them. I'm leaving her eyes dark because her eyes are like dark pools of liquid and they'll be dark anyway. I think it's made a big difference just to lighten her nostrils, they were bugging me!
Any comments???
