Oil on primed paper, 8x10"
This ended up being easily the most successfully rendered portrait I've ever painted, and I learned a lot. There are things that need work as far as color and value, and if I had any interest in spending more time on this I would definitely go in with another layer or two and get everything just right. But this took nearly 3 hours (including the drawing) and I'd much rather move on to another piece than continue laboring over one page in my sketchbook.
