I dont' know what to do with the eyes in this painting. This is still in the very early stages, little detail in nose, mouth, but I am not worried about how to continue with these areas. I am not too worried about the minor drawing adj I have to make on side of face. But I can't get the eye on our right. I have drawn sketches, about a million, but they just don't look right.

Second problem, have I taken the shadows too dark, too brown, too soon? Can I still make color adjustments over color this dark? I know it is a naive questions, but, all of a sudden I feel lost. . . . a babe lost!!

Thanks for any critique anyone can venture
