Hi Francisco

Great chiaroscuro very expressive eyes  maybe right side cheek chin softer slightly thinner shading over left eye I find gesturally misleading I would prefer left  shoulder to read more  I wish composition did not cut of  hat all these are small things this is a lovely emotional portrait also I love the  white collar what coulor hues did yo use ?

Kind regards

Thank you very much Tim for all the reviews and constructive criticism!. You are truly helping me to proceed facing my mistakes, this is purely black and white gouache, i find it extremely easy and fast to work with which let’s me focus on the remaining challenges. Thank you again!

No problem Francisco feedback is crucial these pictures are communication at some level , also we cant see our own pictures clearly this is a good portrait in so many ways

Kind regards

Tim
