Dear Danny,

Thanks a lot for your help. I am very unhappy with what I have done so far. So I will start from scratch and follow your advise. Cld u give me one more? I darkened the shadows with Raw Umber, but the result is a very greenish-dirty color. I've been trying different mixes, consulting my books but cannot get the right shade. Which colors would u suggest for the shadows in yellow? Shld it be greyish or brownish? Its a shame that I can't get it right, especially since the rest of the painting is really nice and I don't want to throw it just because of a little misshapen part of the painting.
Thanks again
D.
