This week, worked on the overall skin tone. I feel like it looks too gray, but I'm not quite sure how to fix it without everything looking too warm. I also don't love the texture showing through, but I'm hesitant to go too dense on the colors and have them be too vibrant or too overdo the white and have everything be too muted. I also realized that the eyebrow looked weird so I re-alighted the square with the grid and it is definitely not following the same grid. I think I might have mis-measured at first? I don't think it looks too bad, so I'm going to stick with it and try to adjust some things to make the proportions look right. I also did my first experimentation with alcohol ink on the yupo paper. I had a really hard time with the hairdryer I was using because the colors kept drying before I could even move them around. I also hadn't planned ahead and I didn't have the extra rubbing alcohol you use to blend the colors together. Around the edges where the color was pretty light is what I'm aiming for, but I think I'm going to try again with the extra blending alcohol and see if it goes better. I also am going to watch a video I found about it and see how this other artist does it. I also want to think about what colors I am using because I don't know what object I'm doing yet but it should probably have similar colors so they look good as a group.
