The Secret_steps

Here are some of the steps that I use to paint

    1-    Paint the face with yellow ocre and Burnt sienna.

    2-    Put white over the other colors on the lights.

    3-    Then the colors fade.

    4-    Put Burnt sienna again over the shadows and a little cadmium red on the cheeks .

    5-    Fade them again.

    6-    And do the details like: Mouth, eyes, ear, nose and hair.

All these steps are at the same time, I mean, when the paint is  wet.
