Oil Portrait - Feature Studies

Here's the completed study from yesterday's post, added a Rembrandt mouth and an eye and mouth of one of his contemporaries, Pickenoy.

Overall the Pickenoys were easier to replicate, his forms are much clearer and defined, Rembrandt has such extreme subtlety that it's hard to see where or how to put the paint. I learned a lot from these though, I think it's gonna benefit my portraits a lot.
