Thank you for your kind words, friends!

Jay - it was great to see you and your work at the show. I enjoyed our conversations.

Vergilius - I'm happy to say this figure was awarded a gold medal.

Very beautiful, Jason.

What colors do you use to create the white color? Thanks.

 

[jjgurk]

Excellent piece, Jason. All of the colors are exquisite and realistically understated. An inspiring work of art in miniature. A very well deserved gold medal.

Jose, Cristiane, John and Steve:

Thank you! I greatly appreciate your comments.

Cristiane - for white I basically use Titanium White, Mars Black, and a color produced by Old Holland called Old Holland Ochre (a nice earthy ochre). Sometimes I add additional colors such as Italian Earth (to warm the tone) or Alizarin Crimson (to cool the tone).
