Tywin Lannister (Bust)-Painting - Oils (2): The Face, pt. I

After a seemingly endless 72 hrs., I was finally able to get back to the painting bench today. . . 

[As a quick sidebar note, my absence from the bench was due to my COVID bivalent booster, which I received on Wednesday. I don't know many individuals who have received this shot, so I can only speak for myself; but it was an asskicker! The first 36 hrs. post-shot were brutal--make sure you allow yourself at least 48 hrs. to recover. But, also make sure you get the vaccine before the weather changes!]

Today I completed phase I of the face fleshtones. Once the neck is dry, I will permanently attach the head to the torso, paint the eyes, and complete the face. I will leave the hair for last, per usual. 

So far, I am very pleased. . .
