Ok, the sun was teasing me that it MIGHT come out, so I took a quick shot (like 4 of them) and much to my chagrin, I still had to play around in Adobe to get the brightness and color close to what it looks like on paper...its still a tad too dark in this image, but its close enough for goverment work at the moment to let y'all get a feel for how its coming along...hopefully my skintone is NOT too dark...I think on her shoulder I need to add some water to just dilute the shadowing on the top part and add some just behind, not alot...her face is almost done, I just need to add some color, contrast and a hint of shadow on the lips, lightest touch of lashes and then I can start doing the hair...the purple-blue flowers will be more purply in color, they are petunias. The leaves I'm not going to mess much with and then I can start building up on the ivy...but, enough of my long ramble, not to mention I had a phthalo blue spill (!!!AHHH!!! oh well)...
30 % completed and I'll probably get further along on her today...more to come...
Please forgive me on the darkness/color contrast of the image...its a 9x12 and I'm not going to stick it on my scanner till its done, so I take a digi pic and the weather outside has been more rain and cloud than not, so - you take what you get with the weather and light - but other than that, stay tuned for an update and a better image....
