Thanks for all the positive comments. I am posting a few closeups--they are a bit soft. I use the following palette:

Flake White
Ivory Black
Prussian Blue
Ult. Blue
Raw Sienna
Yellow Ochre
Cad yellow Med.
Cad Orange
Cad Red Light
Alizarin Crimson
Burnt Sienna
Raw Umber
Burnt Umber
Sap Green

It usually takes 3 layers to get things looking like I want them to. I don't glaze. I use a medium of stand oil and Gamvar. I spray in between layers with retouch varnish when needed.

Thanks again for all of your kind words.

Ardith
