Hi Janet,
This is beautiful and masterfully done. I was admiring the blueish greys because I have so much trouble with getting a nice shadow color.

I think your cool shadow colors are wonderful. Can you tell me how you got them? By that I mean which colors did you use? Mine are always too brown, or too red, so I keep working at it and then my portraits (of women

) look like they need a shave! Hmmph, what an elusive area this is to paint.
thanks,
Joan
