Studying Painting

I have long had an interest in drawing and painting, particularly living things. Recently, i came across Will Kemp's art school. It is very well put together and i was inspired and able to pick up on quite a bit just from his free tutorials. When i have time later, i may buy one of his priced classes also. This is my first attempt at an acrylic painting since finding and studying his site. (5x7 on hardboard)
