returning to the dark side; oil explorations

I'm done with the Wind-Up Bird Chronicle series. I wanted to start something new. Above is the sketch of the new piece and below are the finishes for the last two. I have to rework the face.

Are you serious? I think that guy's face is one of the best things you've ever painted.
It reminds me of Wesley Burt's face paintings: http://www.wesleyburt.com/
