Still working on the same 4 paintings

Almost finished.

I worked on the image below, last night and early this morning. The more I worked, the worse it got.

This image was still in the early stages. It kept getting worse

So, when I went back to the studio, after breakfast, I got out the gesso and painted out the face. The only salvation for this painting, was to completely start over.
This gave me a sense of relief.

I went back to the paintings I was working on yesterday and put this one out in the sun to dry the gesso.

Back and forth between the paintings

The layout of the new face is above. I feel better about it already
