WIP continued David's Head

Here I have added gouache using 1" sable flat brush and Turner paints on 22x15 Fabriano 140 lb hot press paper.  More work is needed on his eyes but I have the basic skin tones down using white, burnt sienna, cad orange and red.  It is interesting to see the printed pages and the effects underneath paint.  There's a big show next weekend I'd like to enter with him if I get through in time.  It is raining cats and dogs here since Wednesday so lots of indoor time equals painting time! Yay! Any excuse to paint more...stay tuned!
