I learned that just a hint of blue can make a highlight pop when applied over warmer colors (of course the model here is under cool light); and that a palette knife can create interesting variation in paint texture and also a strong hard edge where you need it. I have used this reference picture (and some before) from the instructional video by Artist Jeffery Watts on gesture portraits. I enjoy watching painting demos and videos, they give a good insight into the painting process.
Love this!
