Sandra, yo...Thanks <b>John </b> and <b>Sue</b> for your comments.<br /><b>Sandra</b>, you are right about adding darker tones around the white shorts to help make them stand out - Jannis' thighs prove that point, but my aim here was just to lightly suggest the background for similar effect._Frankb10https://www.blogger.com/profile/18151551321981740679noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8991932921959835129.post-83737576476775459252011-01-26T01:35:28.777-08:002011-01-26T01:35:28.777-08:00I think you have done an amazing job of this!

It's fantastic!<br />I don't think the figure is too pale at all - But, I think that if you were to put some darker tones around the white of her shorts on the right and around the light side of her left arm, the figure would be brought forward and stand out a little more :0)Sandra Busbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05622208510609673242noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8991932921959835129.post-41132362693642019232011-01-25T07:30:41.775-08:002011-01-25T07:30:41.775-08:00This is a nice sunny painting, just right to bring...This is a nice sunny painting, just right to bring some warmth for the winter months.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17511653763073963362noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8991932921959835129.post-56847108093394927712011-01-25T06:01:35.352-08:002011-01-25T06:01:35.352-08:00I've always struggled with dark tones because ...I've always struggled with dark tones because I like watercolours to be pale and watery, so this one touches the spot for me Frank.
