[BAS Newsletter] skin colour

[showes8658 at aol.com]

Hi Adrian,I'd always wondered where the likes of Lucien Freud got all those odd skin colours from until I attended a brilliant course at Gerald Moore gallery.  I think it was 3 or 4 days life drawing.  One afternoon the tutor told us to have just 3 colours of pastels - dark, medium and light.  Then just pick out the areas with the appropriate tones.  Hence purple cheeks, green nose and blue chin!  Absolutely brilliant and very effective.Thanks for the emails, etc.Hope you and yours are well.See you at the end of the tunnel, hopefully.Sue Howes
