Silhouette - female profile

11x15 watercolor on Fabriano Artistico 140 lb hot press paper done a year ago this month; today took it out and reworked the model's face, edges of hair and dress in warmer colors.  Main color added was Daniel Smith's transparent pyrrol orange, a very thin but powerful warm hot orange.
