RGB Brightness

Been getting used to the working world. I need some freelance work methinks. I miss painting. One thing I am getting better at because of my job is contrast, which is my weakness. Colors competing with each other in an all out battle on the canvas! I'm working on colors in general right now actually. Trying to use them to add to the painting instead of simply relying on a drawing. Two more days to the weekend! I'm going to try to go to the body exhibit even if I can't get anyone to go with me. I missed it last time and I'm not doing that again. A full day of drawing! Here is my latest that I thew together. Two hours:


Redone with new settings:


Damn color profiles are giving me problems. Adobe RGB(1998) is my default and is what everyone tells me to use, but it doesn't translate to web very well, so I have to convert to sRGB, which kills my colors. I have to take a screenshot and convert that instead. Such a pain. I'd just do sRGB if I could figure out how to set Painter to it. Ah well.

Edit: Yeah, I just got on my PC at work and I can barely see the hair at all. Looks like I'm going to have to do some color calibrations later.
