Excellent name for him/her.<BR/><BR/>I'll have to experiment Jo. I'm half scared to try anything wet on the colorfix paper in case it disintegrates.Jeanette Jobsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08935974758134419990noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20414780.post-15719758048130016512009-02-14T16:01:00.000-03:302009-02-14T16:01:00.000-03:30On Nicole Caulfield's blog she uses some sort of t...On <A HREF="http://nicolecaulfieldfineart.blogspot.com/" REL="nofollow">Nicole Caulfield's blog</A> she uses some sort of thinner to smear the darks on Pastelbord, it should work the same on Colourfix.

The lighting is wonderful in the reference and is one of the reasons it appealed to me.<BR/><BR/>Cathsheard, mice always seem to look cute, even if they are a total pain in the barn.<BR/><BR/>Robyn, I have visions of Tripod banging his head off the wall trying to get to the mouse. :) Everyone should have a little studio pet. I think you should tuck one away in the corner for yourself.<BR/><BR/>I guess I work intently on a piece and have become so familiar with it that I become a little complacent perhaps. I like how it turned out, except for the tshirt which I need to enhance. I know the texture of the colorfix paper makes it grainy and difficult to add colour. I may just cheat and add a little pastel to it to deepen shadows.Jeanette Jobsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08935974758134419990noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20414780.post-11344961807452874412009-02-14T07:03:00.000-03:302009-02-14T07:03:00.000-03:30Ohhhh, I want a studio pet too.

He is perfect, I do hope, over time, you are going to give him some company.<BR/><BR/>You are so casual the way you present these portraits, Jeanette as though they arrive effortlessly upon the page. I love the crispness and confidence of colour, texture and character in this one.
