Hi Sharon,
Thanks for your comments and suggestions. I am serious about improving, and will do whatever work I need to to accomplish this. I will look into all your suggestions.
I do not have a painting from life; I am attaching a drawing I recently did from life. I can see the same issues that were brought up about my painting in the Oil Critiques section: I handicapped myself from the start with frontal and non-directional lighting, and did not use the cues remaining to render the full three-dimensional form of the overall head. This in turn contributed to drawing problems: the hair looks flat, the forehead is too flat, she looks cross-eyed, and the edge of her face on our right comes out too far.
