John, I printed out and read the entire section on skin colors. Last night I mixed what I had on hand, Naples yellow and thio violet and titanium white. Actually made a light without my old standby, cad. orange! Looked like skin tone to me! I will get the recommended colors (NYD and Rose) now. This thread has changed my palette for the better and for that I thank all of you. Karin, Thanks for the first mention of the problem. I also got a lot of hints from Cynthia's palette.

John, Your painting of Elizabeth Morrisette is beautiful! The texture in the background, pillow and her blouse is amazing.

You mentioned a book (in jest? or for real?)

Happy Holidays to all of you, as well.

Renee
