I agree with Tim. Many artists paint in layers--even on top of layers. I've also heard of some artists adding around 25 layers of paint in order to 'mimic' the translucent quality of flesh. And I also agree with Michele about how to handle dark passages by oiling out. Dark areas should not have multiple layers.

Good luck,
Renee Price
