I painted some nice portraits.
First, for #384, I went with all black and white until the very end of painting, when I added just a little color. I had a headache that day. I'm still trying to figure out what, exactly, I did right with the lips, because they look very three dimensional to me.
#385 and #386 are from the same picture. The first has a red-pencil back drawing, the second does not. I also tried to have more dynamic colors in the second, but I'm not sure what happened with that. Eyes, and their layering, are still confusing to me. Also, my hair isn't really green, but I like the way that looks. Out of both of them, #386 looks the least 3D. I just don't really know what I'm doing. I'm not sure if making my paintings look like sculpture is the correct approach at this point.
