Hi, Nathan,

Thank you for the good comments, it's appreciated. I'm charting new territory, so am a little apprehensive.

Sally's leaning on a pillow on the couch, I agree with you and will bring the lighter color down farther on the left side so it looks like she has some support. In a previous drawing of Sally, I tilted her head and twisted her neck, (the kind of thing I did many years ago) and I guess my hand relapsed! In this pose I tried to make her more "comfortable".

I'll continue to work on her clothing as you suggested. Her hair is also unusual, pale silvery white, blonde and brunette, so I'll continue on with it and try to get it "right".

There is no white on her face, (except for a small amount in eyeball). Does outdoor temperature affect digital cameras too? I photographed it outdoors at about 40 degrees. Seems like it is a little bluer in the post than in real life.

Jean
