I didn't take a picture of the lights and darks I mixed. I think this is one of the stronger portraits I've done and its so much more simple than other attempts. 3 lights, 2 darks, black and white, 2 colors. Drew it in to my ability, edges softened a bit just in pushing things back and forth but I resisted until that was the main thing to be done. Then I really focused on the egg principle after the edges. As a sketch done in one sitting its exciting. I could go further with the color I only used the initial mixes, beside the coat. Some reds would bring more life but I'm just gonna leave this as lesson to remember. This is a huge step in the right direction for me.
