Joan, I'm not quite at the Paxton palette yet so I'm not sure I should respond to this, but remember that warm and cool are not only relative terms, they are comparative terms as well. If you go cooler in the lights your shadows will look warmer. Spend a day making flesh charts with your paints - experiment with your reds, yellows and a blue or green - and hang them somewhere where you can refer to them.
Stop worrying so much about the color. Concentrate instead on making that head look three dimensional - bring some parts forward, move some parts back.
