Although she doesn't look too bad for a 57 year old widow Mrs. Ives would look a lot better with some colour methinks. All comers welcome!

Hi Keith, Carolyn,
Sorry perhaps saying quick and easy was a little flippant. (You folks certainly make it appear that way. I can labour for hours and I end up trashing what I do anyway because I don't like the result.)
Thank you both for your renditions! She looks much better.
I'd like to ask quickly - do you colour on a mask and then adjust the opacity of the original to let the colours come through or another method althogether?
cheers, g a r

Nicely done Carol!
You're probably right - black would be her colour.
Her husband was a Thames policeman and died when he was 39, leaving her with 6 children to raise. Somehow it all worked out ok.
many thanks, g a r

I think the widows of the day had to wear black for so long didn't they? Don't know how long they had to wear it
