Early progress for critique (Finished!)
I've started a piece I promised Mother I would do. She is my biggest fan and the one who placed me in training at the age of 10. She is also that 1940's knock-out I posted earlier. Anyway, Mom is facing the challenge of her life right now, so I'm pressed to make some good progress.
This is the underpainting with just a little color thrown in because I'm impatient. (Sorry.) But everything is wet and moveable. Can anyone please take a look and see where I'm off. I think the right (our left) eye is angled wrong. I'm still playing with the lips, but I'm having trouble "seeing" them.
P.S. Now that I've got it up here, I see that he is a little too short. Where is it?
