Lisa, WB

Lisa, I know know really admire WB (rightly so). You may know, right before his work became so very remarkable, he slowed his production way down and began working on his color, experiementing beyond what he had been taught in school. Something I have found most remarkable is that his skin tones are less intense and less contrasty than nature. I found this educational. There is a purposeful restraint...the skin tones appear to me to be 1/2 a value darker than I'd guess the model to be. I know this is not really the point of the post but it is sort of related. Tim
