![]() For this image I wanted to go back to the patterning of the skin by means of light. I started out more realistic, then added the light lines just as I saw them, then began to alter the colors to make them my own, leaning towards purple, indian yellow, teal and green. Oh, yes, there is a bit of flesh color just to tie the various bits together, like islands of color floating gently on the surface of Veronica's skin...it is a slow process, this building up of patterns, and adjusting each color as it sits next to the others and the growing tension between decoration and description is the best part. P.S. I got her expression back!
