Three hours and a day of touch up.




I don't know if the touch up counts to put it here but the model was so lovely I had to finish it.

Gosh, thank you Carlos and Sharon. Cynthia said she was going to move this post to unveilings because it is more than just open studio but that was a couple of days ago.

I appreciate your comments.

Dianne

Hi Diane,

I just now did move this topic, so please let me know if it is now in the right place.

You have done a lovely job with this painting - engaging softness and flowing energy.

(Your painting looks a little dark on my monitor - would you like me to brighten it up a bit? Hard to know , not seeing the original.)

Hi Chris, It was you that emailed me! Sorry. Thank you. Yes you can brighten it up. My monitor displays things much lighter than most I think. Do what looks good for you! Thanks for the reply and the kind comments.

Dianne

Diane,

I just applied the levels function in Photoshop without any other adjustments - does this look ok to you?
