    have redone the adult portrait think i have done the line in his mouth too dark what do you think? otherwise I feel that I have done first one

[Val]

Great job Jenny        I think if you just soften the transition between the light and dark side of his forehead and neck you'll have it aced. Just looks like his forehead and neck are cut in half. Otherwise...brilliant! Colouring is excellent. 

[jennylynn]

    val will do that 

[Happychappy]

    Very good job Jennylynn, I agree with Val about softening the colour on the left side of his face. Nice to see the improvement from the first painting.  I admire your tenacity Jennylynn and I take my  to you. You are a great inspiration to me.  Patricia

After hanging him in the dinning room for a few days, made one small correction to the shadow on the chin. Had it coming too close to the left side of his mouth ( our right )

Had already redone his Right ear ( our left)  Thought he was going to be a "Vincent  van Gogh" look-a like !!

Thought about laying on a very pale orange wash on the light side of his face.... As is seems too light to me.
But I could hear the fiddles tuning up and decided to leave it alone..learned a lot including I got a LOT to still learn No graduation for me...a life long learner

I am soo very glad we are all in this together and a very big  to Dennis & Nolan!!

This guy is becoming so famous he won't be able to walk out in public anymore. Okay, sure. I'll believe the cat hid it. Probably the one popping up in all the Feb challenges. Nice job Brian.  Another successful portraitist in the bunch.   All I have managed is a mouth of very yellow teeth and one green eye. I guess that could make me a cyclopsist. Congratulations.

    Nice job on the portrait Brian.  Patricia.
