Oil Portrait of Esme - Sneak Peek

Here's a couple-days early sneak peek of my progress on the oil portrait of Esme' next to the recent charcoal sketch. 

I've decided to paint this one without an under-painting since it's being done from one simple piece of reference material, and it sounded like fun. Chances are I'll end up making a second color pass over some of the painting anyway...but so far, I'm happy with how it's coming together. 

I've got footage of the process so far, and I'll be editing it together into a full demo eventually. 

Stay tuned...
