Portrait No 2: Asiasque

Oh, grief!!! Look at that garbage paint stroke choices... I think I'm going to be sick.
The above image is a reworked version of a piece I had previously done when I was learning traditional and digital medium painting. As you can tell from the original painting on the right, it looks nothing like the re-mastered painting. The reference photo is lost (I have the organizational skill of earphones left to their own devices in a gym bag. If you happen to maybe recognize her maybe leave a comment so I can credit her.
Okay, sure! Do the color choices make it seem a bit muddy. Yeah, I think I can live with that (for now) so long as the work is legible and the brushwork is confident and unified. I do think I could have lit her up a little to make some parts readable...a little bit. But because of the technique I sometimes use (grayscale to color), I don't think it could be helped much... Well, it could but it would have taken another week and I have the patience of a crowning turd.
At the end of the day, one just has to Yoga it and say, "Enough that is" and submit themselves to whatever may come. Just fucking call it.
