Super rich colouring. (Orton technique ?) Excellent one Becky #5787687

Becky J. Parkinson level-classic April 14, 2008

Roger,

Thank you! Yes, it is the Orton technique done just slightly differently, as Tony Sweet does it. It was an assignment in his class but I applied it to this photo after learning how to do it.
