    Wonderful - just what I needed to see at this moment! The colours are really mesmerizing; in particular, her lipstick is just ever so slightly off complementary, I think.

    You are so right about the lipstick, which is my fault. I posted in a hurry without checking the final scan until now. I have adjusted the color to where it should be and am reposting it now.
