"Courtney in Paris" by Carol Schiff

Still working with a few head studies to practice skin tones, as well as features.  On this one, I tried very hard to capture a likeness as well as the proper skin tones.

$80 + 10




She has that beautiful ivory skin, full of blues, lavenders and peaches.


It took several tries to capture her cute upturned nose just right.


I have not done portraits for many years and find that I am enjoying the challenge this week.  It's always good to push yourself now and then.
