Head Study #42

This is from a portrait by the French painter Edouard Dubufe (1855).  My goal is to eventually get a picture like this this done in three sessions.

Head Study #41

This is from a pin up photo.  My goal is to get a color likeness in three passes.  In this case it took me five attempts.  I went too dark in the early stages.
