The upper picture shows what I painted today - a desaster of chalkiness. So I stopped it there and played with photoshop to learn what changes would make the painting look more acceptable... Higher color temperature, higher saturation, lower darks.

Hi Thomas, I do not quite agree with you concerning Xiao Li comment about glazing. Since you are going to wipe it away anyway, why not experiment and after it completely dries, put a glaze of Indian Yellow over the whole painting and then wipe back to get some sparkly light. I am willing to bet that this will give you the same effect ..possibly better ..then the photoshop version? Also, this would not be correcting, but enhancing your painting.
Lovely subject/concept, I don't find is to be so chalky either!
Thomas, may be you can try glazing to bring up the glowing effect on your painting.
Nice!!
Photoshop can be an amazing tool for an artist. I'm just starting to learn how to use it; but, I've noticed that I can study a painting and not see the problems, put a digital picture on the computer and they can jump out at you and then you look at your painting and think 'of course!'
