Adriano,
Thank-you for that informative demonstration. I can see why your method results in such lively skin-tones in pastel.
There are two painters, both American that work with complementary colors in the skin-tones. Frieseke and Stuart, the artist who did the famous portraits of our first president, George Washington. They have quite a few of his in the Boston Museum of Fine Arts. Even though he painted in the 18th century his skin-tones are as impressionistic as Klimt. I was quite amazed when I saw them in person.
I don't have time now to post a Frieseke now, but his skin-tones and paintings are a riot of color.
What are your colors, how many pastels do you have and what brands?
