Painting Sara | Day 3

I’m starting to fill in blocks of colors.  I’m concentrating on the background, and non-flesh areas.  I’m using a green tone for the dark areas; we’ll see how that goes.  Some of the fringe details of the figure get lost in the ‘black’ of the photograph.  I’ve printed out a few different versions of the photo, manipulated in Photoshop for various levels of contrast and brightness.
