Light Source

Lovely work!

I would like to see more of a commitment to the light source coming from viewer's right with lighter lights there and darker darks on the shadow side.

Variety is the spice of portraits. There is a consistency of value, color temperature, and edges here that could benefit from playing around more.

Massing some of the hair together in areas with many strands would add volume.

I would encourage to you take more classes whenever possible. There is no substitute for the live model and camaraderie of painters to improve one's work.

Enjoy the journey,
Jeanine
