[Daily Doodle] Speedpaint of girl

Daily Doodle: This time, took a black and white photograph and had to make up my own colour scheme.

My initial ref, and I used this as inspiration for the skin tones. The hair and scarf (?) and eye colours are my own. For the whole thing, absolutely no eyedroppering; each colour was mixed from scratch.

I like the combination of colours I came up with, but I think I was less brave with the skin tones this time. More of those greens and oranges should have made it onto her skin.
Time: 1.5ish hours, a little off-and-on
