Self Portrait. Oil on Canson Paper

 

My finished self portrait. I used oil paint on Canson paper.  The paper is designed for oil paints.  I think this is my best portrait so far.  I will continue practicing.  I am not vain in painting myself, I just don't have a model that will pose for me.  LOL.  The following images are my underpaintings. 

I used burnt umber as a base.

Introduced paynes grey for the darker areas.

I started putting in the background to judge my values better.
