Going in a different direction

Watercolor portraits are getting a little old and they take sometimes up to an hour, which isn't going to work when I get busier. Watercolor remains to be one of my favorite coloring mediums, though. How many different angles of my face can I paint in the same lighting from my window?

Where to go next?

I want to draw different styles, different situations, clothes, periods, anything. I don't even know what kind of cartoon eyes I prefer to draw. So, I'll experiment and see what keeps showing up, and maybe that'll give me some kind of an indication of style.

And I want to color these digitally, because I haven't done that before, and I really need to. Hopefully, I'll keep a before color and after color.

SO, I'm looking at- facial expression, pose, silhouette, and then I'm looking at different coloring techniques (which I really should research before I make them up).

PLUS I have a lot to catch up on. So bear with me, and I'll see about photoshop tutorials. A new tag is invented: photoshop.
