Untitled Portrait Painting

Hello hello

The nieces 1 and 2 are spending part of their school holiday with me which means they're constantly hovering around me to watch whenever I'm drawing or painting. Strange how I don't mind them watching but when I tried turning on a camera to record myself I felt so uncomfortable like I was putting on a performance and I could not remember my lines. I don't know how artists do it. Maybe if I get a camera and set it up behind me, I'll forget it's there but using a phone I'm very much aware that I'm on camera.

Here's the first portrait from yesterday

Anyway the nieces and I started these portrait yesterday and then made changes earlier this morning. I am currently using an application I'm not familiar with so the aim is to make these quick painting to see what it can do

and the second portrait or edit

I like the second best

Tried to put together a process but these are not fully accurate because I only had five layers to work with so I was going back and forth between layers. So this is more like layer striping.
