Another thanks to my daughter for suffering for my art :-) At least the green came off easier than the knots came out of her hair last time.

Very little pp involved, a little curves tweak and some very minor cloning to fix up the makeup.

I know the costume/photo is bizarre, but it does have a definite Dr Seuss feel to it.

Very nice. The makeup is interesting and the outfit well fitting. We all try to improve on any image we see and my suggestion would have been to retain the real hand with a yellow glove. However, I do not wish to take away from your study which does take advantage of the lively colors.

The Grinch, it seems, has turned into a clown,
And though his mouth has a smile, it still looks like a frown.
Just wait one more minute, the Grinch does declare,
I'll get more boas and scarves, and maybe blue hair!

A strange combination of clothes for the Grinch, but your model was very patient to endure that green makeup. Hope it came off quickly!

The right hand side of the face is a little dark for me. I can also see some haloing around the foam finger.
