Day 6 of Tintype Commission

I started the day with a focus on getting the background wall and shadow better established.  I did this by applying Yellow Ochre to the upper left corner and blended that out in the shape of the shadow.  I then worked in a little Burnt Umber mixed with Paynes Gray into the shadow area and finally blended it all together.  Next, I began working on the floor with Titanium White followed by Mars Black.  I then did a minute amount of work on the legs and shoes, followed by a quick layer of flesh tone to the face and hands, and finished with working on the dress in Alizarin Crimson and Yellow Ochre.


Here's the day's video:
