Portrait in Progress (Underpainting) Posted October 5

This is what I have done so far on the portrait of my friend's father. I used pencil to put in some light marks for placement, then switched to paint to start blocking things in. I start with yellow because it is the most forgiving if I make a mistake, and then go darker. I use brown or purple for darkest areas at first. I try to remember to put the background in as I go. At this point, I can see a resemblance but I can also already see things I need to change.
