10 A pop of colour

I mentioned that when painting skin, it’s better to vary the colour choices. This is one of the times that an airbrush can be helpful painting skin without making it look muddy. To add a warm flush of colour, I take a soft airbrush, set my layer to Overlay or Color and add some pink/apricot to the cheeks, nose and lips. I keep the Opacity low for a subtle pop of colour.
