Hmmmmm. This is interesting to me, and frustrating me more. The recurring comments to me about just about every portrait I have posted seem to be concerning "too much purple" "warm up the shadows" "the shadows are too cool" but when I go to the easel and look, or try to adjust they get TOO HOT. But now I'm starting to think I'm not as off as I have been thinking I am! (If that makes any sense) but rather, when I adjust the painting on my monitor to match the painting in hand this is where I am going wrong.

I don't have a clue how to calibrate a monitor!
