Time to start fine tuning
This digital photograph does not indicate that I have made any major changes to the Tika's painting, but subtle layers of paint have been added. I also started making some shadow and modeling changes so that her right eye is not in such a dark shadow. This is what we call "artistic license" and is not always that easy to pull off, so do pay attention!
Now is the time that I need to start fine tuning. It is looking like Tika's ears are not the same size and that the slightly cocked head is not that convincing. Which ear is the more accurate? The right or the left? Check the width as well. I also want to put more color into the snow behind her.
