Thank you, Karin, for taking the time to comment on this. I was hoping you would.

Sally is coming over almost daily now, and I can see what you are talking about. I used the photo for the pose and now am using her for color studies. None of the colors in her face are as strong as what I have painted. I think I am a contrast junkie, and will need to start working very hard to correct that.

I want to have the right side of the painting fade to very dark plum and have her form disappear into it. Do you see any problems with contrast there? Her eye color problem has been solved. She wants brown! We compromised on the ice green.

Jean
