Look at this. I swiped this color chip off of www.finartstore.com (which by the way, has THE BEST color charts for all of the pastels) This is the color the portrait is. Yikes! no wonder everyone keeps telling me how cool things are. I feel like such a dunce that I never really put the two together til now that you weren't seeing it as is!

I think this color chip is pretty accurate, much closer to the real piece of paper than what you are seeing.

I have calibrated my monitor, and I do see more of a bluish tint than I did. But I also think part of the problem is photo itself, I need to figure out what I am doing wrong with this camera.
