Ariel's WIP paintings

[Ariel]

so i finally decided what im gonna do for the school project
i wont push myself too far with it cause i dont wanna got depressed after the first painting

decided on doing facial expressions- the only thing im 'good' at >.<


ill make-

• calm
  
• happy
  
• angry
  
• sad
  

so i just sketched the calm one:



now, i want to know how u think i should work on it.
i thought on giving it a really bright desaturated shading for the skin and a highly saturated color for the eyebrows, lips and pupils.

what do u think?
if u have any other idea on the way i should color/shade them ill be more than glad to hear.
