First attempt at Sydney final

This is all I can do to this portrait of Sydney. The paper has been scrubbed out so much that it is starting to bleed around those edges when I try to paint. So, while this still doesn't resemble Sydney's eyes and mouth, it was a good practice session and fun to do. When the studio is back together I will concentrate on doing this one again from the beginning. I always learn quite a bit, even when a painting goes onto my pile of tears stack of bad ones.
