Done

Day light, before last wash

Day, after wash. I masked only the eye.

Studio light before

I think it's all right for a first attempt. Now I'd like to try this technique with a variety of subjects.

As always, your comments are most welcome. And if you absolutely cannot live without it, it is for sale. :)

  8. Beautiful finish - and you can tell the artist knows her horse anatomy well - did I say beautiful? Well, it deserves two of them and a big nose nuzzle to the handsome boy.
