Self Portrait

Have been working on a self portrait in my Thursday studio class. didn't want to do it but have learned some valuable things, besides the fact that I should have wore more sunscreen in the past. I was struggling with mixing flesh tones till I added cad. Red light to my palette. That and some raw umber and white make a nice range of color. Even some yellow ocher and some orange can be helpful. Also with a portrait the smallest change can make a big difference.
