A Touch of Red

Karoda said she would like to see a touch of red on my self portrait. I had thought about that and so with the help of photoshop, here it is with a touch of red. What do you think?

    I too like the red. I think it’s small enough that rest of the portrait balances it out, and it gives the whole thing a zing of surprise!

  2. Lora Martin says:

    Yep! Love that spot of red!

    I like the idea of red, but indeed, the cheek is too much. How about a tiny crescent shaped highlight on one of the beads? Or not… it’s wonderful either way.

  4. Glad the giant zit is OUT – I LOVE LOVE LOVE the B&W version. I think Pokey is going to be overwhelmed with self portraits, just like happened with the dolls and ATCs!

  5. Gerrie says:

    Yeh! Giant zit. The red cheek will not happen. I’m going to stay with the all black and white!

    I’m with Diane and Stephanie on this one. I liked it better before. Now I see it and my mind says “giant zit”.
    Sorry. :-/

    what Diane said. It’s kinda like the Japanese flag.

    Honestly? To my eye, the picture becomes about that red circle, not about the woman’s face. I liked it better all b&w. But that’s just me…
