Oil painting practice

I just started this this evening. I'm just getting myself familiar with oils. I spent the afternoon and last night trawling for stock photos on deviantart but a lot of the ones I wanted to use had awkward conditions for use. Eventually I went with this one. It hasn't been overly messed with and doesn't have a pouty posed model. It's also relatively clear and looks quite natural and I quite like it.


I didn't get on till quite late. I had to pull myself away from it because if I work too late I end up not being able to sleep till like 7 the next day.


(My slightly cheeky way of seeing where I'm going wrong with her head for when I start tomorrow)
