Step 13, painting Amy Winehouse

Step by Step

So this painting is just about done, I will now spend time checking my reference image and see if I have missed or added anything that is not supposed to be there. I will often finish off my painting by spraying over my opaque colours with a transparent colour. Opaque is solid and at this stage in the painting I only want to change a few areas by adjusting the hue. When doing this be very very careful, transparent paint will get darker and darker the more you layer, you only need a SMALL amount to make the shift. Remember to be subtle and paint slowly and LIGHTLY
