Better color?
Hi again.
Hopefully the color is more accurate this time. I'm still borrowing a camera for photos, but have picked out my new one. Just waiting for some dollars!
Her neck and dress are not complete yet, and I plan to soften her chin line more. I've spent days on her hair alone, all that highlighting.
Annie's skin tones were very hard to get right. When she looked accurate in daylight, at night her skin appeared too yellow. When I added more pink tones she looked too pink in daylight, but better at night with incandescent lights. Somehow with glazing and trial and error, she looks pleasing both day and night now. I'm not sure how a happy medium was found. I need to study more on lighting.
The canvas was toned again, with deep rose in background and Old Holland indian yellow lake extra for her face and body. And I forgot, this is oil on canvas, 24"x28". I hope the color is better this time.
