WORK IN PROGRESS #2: Big Sister

Description:

Work in progress update: For those of you who ask me about how I paint hair, here is my crazy weird process. I try to get most of the base layers (which are usually the dark layers) down with fat brush strokes... then I go in with the lighter colors. Sometimes (in this case) I start working on the highlights before I've laid down the rest of the base layers.. because I'm impatient and like to see things complete. Anyways, I also kind of outline with a lighter shade where the direction of the hair is going. I don't know.. I'm not sure if there is a right or wrong way of doing it, I just know this is what works for me. Hope that helps!
