Hello Bob and welcome,

Your work shows an understanding of the structure of the head and face and the relationships that exist their. Good structure. And a very nice oil painting for your second one. Actually, very good no matter what the number.

I was advised early on that I should expect to fail on my first few attempts and I pretty much did. Consequently since I felt that this was considered "normal" I wasn't discouraged. Your second oil far surpasses my first three attempts (I saved two just so I can go back and look at them).

Keep painting, I'm looking forward to seeing more.
