I began today by removing the masking paper from the arms and neck areas. I began with a light peach Prisma Premier pencil and added darker shades in layers, this time I used my lightest peach colored pencil to act as the burnishing pencil after which I added shadows using terra cotta and dark brown followed by some additional light burnishing with the terra cotta color. Then onto the cherries ....
Next I removed the masking paper from the head and started coloring in the flesh of the face. In the past I have a troubles adding pink to the cheeks so this time I put a layer of a light pink in the cheek areas after which I started layering different shades of peach followed by terra cotta for the initial shadowing. At this point I was getting tired and decided to call it a day....
There are no instructions in the book "Colored Pencil Painting Bible" (Techniques for Achieving Luminous Color and Unltrarealistic Effects) by Alyona Nickelsen at BrushAndPencil.com for coloring flesh so this is all ad-libbed using the techniques I have learned. We'll see how I do tomorrow!
Happy Day everyone!
