Leslie, you made an excellent copy. It looks just like the one in the book or perhaps a little better. Did you use vermilion for the red areas?

Of course, Leonardo knew how to paint hair, water and millions of other things, but he still used the same hands and the same brushes. I interpret "painting wavy hair like running water", as trying to paint it in a loose manner with a random harmony, without thinking whether it was water or hair.
