Portrait Painting Progress

I have added a few more layers since my last post. I had to darken some of the shadows and darkened the eyes. The eyes and the mouth have been two of my biggest challenges. With each new layer added I feel it is beginning to take shape. There are several more layers I want to add before it becomes complete. I will post more as I progress.
