Allison II

It has been 2 months since my last post.  I have been doing quite a bit of painting since then so I should spend some time to post my progress online.  I'll arrange to post something new every day for the next 5-6 days so that no one is flooded with images.

Here is Allison II with much more progress completed.  I just need to spend a little bit more time on the hair and I will be finished.  Quite a bit of sinking in is happening in this painting.  That means that the darks are losing their luster and appearing lighter than they otherwise should.  Varnishing at the end of the painting will solve this problem.

Here is a list of the colors that I used: Titanium White, Yellow Ocher, Venetian Red, Ultramarine Blue, and Ivory Black.
