Northern Light-"Putting in the Apple"


I follow Fred Wessel's advice when "putting in the apple." The quote below is from his website.

"This step the Medieval artist's called 'putting the apple in the cheeks'. A thin glaze of vermilion or cadmium red light is applied to all facial areas where bone or cartilage is close to the skin [ie., areas where the flesh appears pink such as the cheeks, tip of the nose, ears and chin]"-Fred Wessel
