I was not expecting to make any progress but I picked up my brush and began. I want the skin tones to dry thoroughly before I apply another transparent layer of flesh. So, I touched up eyebrows, did a few minor adjustments here and there and then decided to lay out some colors for the hair. I used raw umber for darkening hair in deep shadow. I used yellow ocher, gel and some Naples yellow light mixed with burnt sienna and raw umber to add some rich mid tones and blond sunlight. Then I used burnt sienna and Naples yellow light to lay in the sun lit hair of the brunette. Her hair is very dark brown but I love the way the bright sunshine brings out the red tones in her hair. Now I am going to do a little cleaning and organizing in my studio while I feel well enough to do it. May we all be safe and well. Prayers for all who are ill. Diana
