Wrapping up Clinton

I've softened the edges using the same transparent brush described below, andused the "bristle" brush shown below for hair details and skin texture.

I put some violet in the shadows of the face to cool things off, and added some very light blue to the hilights to make them hotter.

Also, I added a tie dye peace tie to break up the somber feel of the piece.

For the background, I created a scattered sponge-like brush with color dynamics. I brought the color of the background down over the jacket to unify the piece a bit and give it all a sense of continuity.

By the way, I experimented with using only 4 layers on this which is unusual for me. For something even as simple as this, I'd usually have over 15 layers.

That's about it for this piece, thanks for coming along for the ride!
