I agree with Chuck. The problems are ones of value. There is no differentiation in the painting between the areas of the head that are in the light and the areas that are in shadow, so there is no feeling of form and volume.

Again, this is partly due to the photograph of the painting. I did follow instructions for photographing outside (north side of house, etc.), but the results are still not quite true to the actual painting. I don't know what I'm doing wrong. Your critique is still valid, however, but perhaps not to the degree that it seems in these images.
