Beautiful!




Hi Karin,
I haven't been painting since the kids got out of school for the summer but today I had some time so I had to log onto the Forum and see what you've been doing. I knew there would be a beautiful painting by you in the portrait unveilings section. I was right! Magnificent. (It's interesting, most of your portraits that I've seen seem to be of girls . . . Somehow I expected a portrait of a female.)

Karin, what do you mean by

"The rest is underpainted with flat areas of (toned down) "local color." "

Are 'flat areas' just all one solid tone of the particular color (for example, the red)? How is it "toned down"?

Thank you in advance for your answer and it's glad to be back in touch,
Joan
