Great job in capturing this man's anger. And his skin tones are so nice expressing his age and trials of life. I like your red peeking through, too. Very nice!!
This one has an immediacy that its close cropping can't totally explain. Again you caught someone in the act of speaking, seemingly speaking urgently to me, the viewer!

A wonderfully worn face, it has experience and life written all over it in the brushstrokes you've used. Excellent Karin!

Very dramatic!
You made that look easy, I have a feeling that was a tough one to paint.
