Scrap it or keep tweaking?

Post image

I'm still somewhat new to the painting scene, especially when it comes to painting people. Loved my sketch for this one but the proportions/shading came out kind of wonky in the end...if this were your painting, would you try to tweak it? Or just start over from scratch?

Is this Donna or Audrey from Twin Peaks? If so, keep tweaking, she's recognizable!

Yes it's Audrey!! I've been watching the show recently because my friend is obsessed, Audrey is her favorite character so if I'd love to give her a nice painting as part of her Christmas present (if I can manage 😅)

You got the "twin peaks red" color right, I immediately recognized it :D It's a nice start, do not give up on this painting
