Jeanine,

Just a quick note about the charcoal sketch. I think you've tipped his head down and turned it quite a bit around toward his shoulder, and that is adding considerably to the "slouched" look that you're trying to avoid. Be sure that doesn't creep into your painting. (You might be reading a light on the side of his neck as the center of the chin.)
