oil portrait practice - day 10

 The portrait group at the New Braunfels Art League moved to the second Tuesday of the month, so my painting for today is another attempt to push some oil paint around a canvas board with brushes.
I stuck with burnt umber this time.

The model took a break every twenty minutes, so these shots are at each break. I left after an hour of painting. I feel like I should have quit after the first 20 minutes! Ah well, one doesn't improve without [lots and lots of] practice.
