Beth- - Did I mention the word rules ? huh !? I think the rules of light are extremely important and cannot be simplified in this manner.
One of the most important and crucial aspects of lighting a head isn't to be seen in this horrible way of simplifying things. That is: The light reflected from one part of the face onto another part of the face. And it happens everywhere in the face. This effect is totally excluded in this example. It's better to forget that awful ball-theory, therefore.
If you want a portrait to look three-dimensional and alive then you cannot exclude these reflections within a face.
