I painted this on Monday at my oil class… just me, a mirror, and 5 colors of paint. The overhead light is not attractive – the shadow of my glasses is quite awful but the exercise was to paint the shapes and values that one sees. I think I kind of got a likeness at least and the light/dark areas on the mouth and chin are definitely working to describe the contours of my face. Cheers!
