The painting is still in monochrome of ochre and white for the skin, burnt umber and white for the hair, blue and white for the sky.

Brown paint dries very quickly this makes life difficult. I have to paint the blue sky in now when the paint is still wet because I want soft edges.

I can see I am going to have a lot of trouble with eyes, mouths, and ears in this painting and that’s not counting the horse.

I discovered your blog only about a week ago. I am fascinated by your explanations of the use of color. I do love to paint but not seriously and have never had art lessons, so your explanations of the use of color for different effects is really interesting for me. I have only ever used watercolors and of late have had to resort to Prisma Color pencils because my hand is not as steady as it used to be
