ps. It may be that your source photo has taken on distortion due to either lens or proximity, in which case the image might agree with the source photo, but the source photo won't agree with the subject..

Here is the photo.
YIKES! The flaws in my portrait are disturbing when I compare them side by side.

I'm happy with the ear, and thats about it *laughs*
I spent another hour in front of this piece and worked out some of the major flaws. Although I still don't know what to think of the eye position.
I still need to fix his cheekbones and eyes

Lend me your ears
I love painting ears. I really mean I LOVE painting ears! Ears are every bit as much a feature as eyes, mouth or nose.
I think that ears are underrated as to their importance in likeness.
This spring I am taking a forensic workshop with Karen Taylor at the Scottsdale Artists' School. There are forensic expertrs who believe that ear shapes are every bit as accurate as fingerprints in identifying an individual. We should all pay attention to ears.
