Right. I hope you don`t mind but I`ve done a Photoshop paintover to try and make certain of what you are all saying and see if they work, including darkening under the chin and the eyes and a bit more work on the hair. On the anatomy issue, definitely right and something I might use in the future. But on this occasion I`m going to leave the painting as it is because it isn`t that important that I get it correct to the original picture, but a good idea for future portraits.
Please let me know if I`ve got it right. And the harder the critique the better, as far as I`m concerned. So much to learn.
