Brown hair and shut eye

In this penultimate stage, washes were mixed to make various shades of light brown.
Hair, eyebrows and beard and the shut eyes all got treated in shades of brown.

I've enjoyed this - he's been fun.. I can feel him concentrating, yet going with the flow.. a few shadows to do, and some reinforcing on the drifting washes and he'll be done.
Tomorrow .
See you then :)

  1. Very good Pat.
    I'm sure he'll have a stiff neck when he awakes,
    does he deserve a suggestion of a pillow?

  2. Thanks, Beryl - but no pillow! He is leaning back in a recliner chair, so he is fairly well supported :)
