You tend to forget to view your work in front of a mirror don't you?

I do that a lot, only this time I tried not to, then I discovered that I painted my ear instead of hers its obvious on picture number 2.

It's funny how our minds play tricks on us...
You are absolutely right, I did notice these things also the orientation of the eyes is a bit off and her eyebrows left one(our right) needs adjusting also the corners of the mouth and the lower lip need adjusting I think I'll adjust those when I systematically apply a glaze over the face and start building up those flesh tones again.
I'm trying to work on everything and not stay in one place, also trying to stay as far from the painting as possible at this point so that my strokes would land on the right places.

Thank you man for choosing to be picky with the painting I'm glad you did.
