Thank you




Thank you for your kind words, Jeff and Lisa. I appreciate your taking the time to critique. I agree the head is elongated. She likes to wear her hair bands pushed way back so I guessed at where the end of the head would be. She does have rather large ears and is sometimes teased about it. As her mother I think they are wonderful and make her unique. I do have a fondness for unusual features but it sometimes lands me in trouble with clients.

The palette I used was Daniel Greene's that he showed in one of the recent art magazines. I keep trying to paint the shadows without white but have not been successful so far. They tend to get muddy and do not have the fleshy feeling I want, any ideas about that? I have included the photo I used as a reference.

Thank you again for taking the time to critique. I really appreciate it.

Vianna
