New Release: "Dark and Stormy"

I've always liked summer storms, as long as I'm somewhere safe and cozy.  The idea of wild wet weather making everyone have to hunker down and just ride it out while Mother Nature put's on a show makes me a little excited.

On the Drawing Board: Mixing up some hair color

Much like blond hair, rendering red hair requires quite an array of colors to make it look authentic.  There are not only the variations in the color of the hair itself but being lighter than black or brown, it captures and is affected more by the light sources shining on it. 

A dash of ginger perhaps?

Outline done, time to begin a new pastel painting.  I'm toying with the idea of make this figure a ginger. What do you think? Oh and why are redheads called gingers? All the ginger root I've ever seen is pale yellow.
