Oil colour on linen canvas. Hair roughed in with Prussian blue and a smidgen of alizarin crimson (both of them very powerful colours to be handled with caution.) Leave to dry.

I like what you did with the hue around the flower and her hair.

Gives it a nice glowing effect!

This is coning along well!

Good work!

  Thanks Ryan! I have to leave the paint to dry because both Prussian blue and alizarin crimson are very strong pigments and if one paints over them while they are not yet dry they will bleed into and discolour what is painted over them. Best to err on the side of caution.
