/ic/ - Artwork/Critique

Had to cross post since I didnt realize there was a new thread but here it goes.

Hello to /ic/! I’ve recently been interested in painting and decided to learn how to paint the eyes in the past few weeks, My problem with painting (I’m doing it digitally since iPads are mandatory in school) is it’s so hard to find the mid tones and the variations of the skin’s color.

Is there any tip you guys can give to make it easier to identify the color of the skin? I’d appreciate feedback. and only now have I learn to appreciate how hard it is to paint.

My proportions arent that good yet but I’m working on it.
