Mari,

You might be right. I think colorizing Grandmother might have ben a little ambitious on my part. I do have color photos of her from age 50-80. I've matched her hair color of choice (Clairol) fairly well. Her skin tones were of a peach tone. This exercise has been a great argument for painting from life.
