More about the Workshop with Diane Tesler
On the second day of the workshop I decided to try doing a figure because I wanted to learn as much as I could about painting skin tones especially with children. Diane's help gave me confidence and the courage to paint a big version of the studies I did recently of one of my granddaughters.
Notes:
Skin tones for children are the same as adults. There is no separate formula. Watch for proportions and planes when painting children.
Colors generally used for skin tones - yellow ochre, viridian and cad red light along with white. Keep lightening and darkening from that mixture. For shadows: mix of viridian and thalo rose or permanent rose to make a lavender.
Good gray = yellow ochre, permanent rose and ub
(you can get to a gray by using almost any version of RYB)
Thank you to Diane Tesler for this outstanding workshop.

I am trying out the auction at Daily Paintworks. I might have put my starting bids too low, if you know of anyone who wants some 6 x 6 paintings for a very low price ($10) here are some good bargains.
