Saper, ChrisYou can paint realistic skin tones that glow with life!
Learning how to capture such quality has never been easier. Inside you'll find guidelines for rendering accurate skin tones in a variety of media, including watercolor, oil and pastel.

- Refine these colors into dozens of possible variations within each group
- Select your palette and mix hues for clean, beautiful colors
- Determine the color and temperature of light that falls on your subject
- Paint direct and indirect sunlight, artificial light and highlights of light
- Master the four elements that determine color in shadow
