Thanks for the input! Believe it or not, this was the first "reference free" image of a human I've done in a while, and it's also the first painting of a human I've done in a while where I skipped the pencil entirely. Again, I'm a lot happier with it than I am with just about everything I've done the old fashioned way except my Mama entry.

Still, I see what you mean, especially with the eyes and the hair color. I suspect the hair color may be wishful thinking on my part; I don't particular care for the canon shade of green.

I'm going to try to find a way to incorporate guidelines into these "no pencil" pantings on your suggestion without losing them underneath the first layer of paint. Thank you.
