Jim,
I am so tickled with myself. Viewing the painting on the forum/monitor, the streak in the hair bothered me also. So I got up from my chair and gently subdued the streak on our left side. Then thought, maybe I should not have done that. It does look better, it was really pulling the eye, I thought. Thank you for the confirmation that I proceeded in the right direction.
As for the highlights, you are correct again. I am thinking I will tone those down also. Maybe with just a slight finger pat.
Thanks so much. Geri
