After work yesterday evening, I continued to work on the portrait. I’m happier with it, but this morning I can see plenty of issues to work out: the neck needs work, areas on the forehead need some color variation…hell, I may even adjust the forehead a bit. The head seems too rectangular for my face. I’ve also got to paint in my earrings too. Very important to have those!
Places I’m happier with are the hair and the beard! I really tried to focus my time on those areas.
Overall, I’m feeling more confident in the direction the painting is going. I’m going to keep hammering away at it, but this does feel better.
