Warm and cool... reds

I talked a little before about turning forms with value versus turning form with temperature.  Well, you need a little of both to successfully work with red.  I added a little bit of violet to the reds on the right side of Misty’s core shadow and a little bit of orange to be reds on the left.  I ended up going back and cooling the reds on the right side down even more as the painting progressed.
