Here is a copy of a painting by Pietro Annigoni.  Sorry, I missed photographing the first stage.

Head Study #26

Here is a screen cap of Louise Brooks, a silent film era actress.  It's hard to get much detail from those old films.

Head Study #24

Here is a larger size study of a John Singer Sargent charcoal drawing.  Till this point I've been painting to the edges of the paper.  But now I think I'll try to center the study and have margins when doing these copies.  Also it's difficult painting when I'm freezing.  The apartment heating is off for the season now, while temperatures have dipped into the 30s this weekend.
