Lisa,

Thanks!

We were sitting near the front of my studio - which is a retail shop with big picture windows. The windows were to our left and behind her as well.

The hair I didn't even touch except a general outline until she left, then with 3 minutes til I had to leave I just brushed a bunch in. I like your suggestion of 2 values.

I didn't have time to get it good enough, but the highlights in her hair looked positively pink. I am going to paint her again. The funny thing is, my next model lined up is this goth girl who dyes her hair bright pink. May be a new theme for me.

She has some pretty nifty eyebrows doesn't she? Those are the exact shape of them, kinda like 3 sides of a square.
