Head Study #4

Here is a study of a John Singer Sargent mug of William Butler Yeats.  I thought I would take a break from monochromes and add other colors to see what it would look like.  I started out with a light wash of cobalt blue, then a wash of darker ultra marine blue and finished off with the darks in purple. I'm not so sure how much I like the color effects, but I did notice that I am starting to become more confident in my brush strokes.
