Thanks for posting this lovely piece Mike. I am about to start painting again after a several year hiatus devoted to pastels. I have (lucky me) a model for the summer, so I plan to do a study and a more formal finished piece. This post will be very helpful and referred to often.

What colors did you use for the skin tones? It looks like you painted her in daylight, is that correct? Do you paint sight-size (the canvas next to her face) or relative size?

Thanks,
