Amazing work! Realy love the second to last one. Very expressive and love the texture and composition!

This looks awesome! I would suggest 3 things for you to try:
1- Increase the value range. You could try in a separate paper how deep you can make the shadows and how much steps you can go in the mid tones
2- Render with suggested texture. If you render fur in some strategic areas (outlines, high contrast zones, changes in form) then the brain fills the rest, resulting in a more neat result with the sensation of texture all over.
3- Draw with the texture instead of lines. I can see solid lines underneath the fur in the contours. You could draw normally, and then when it's fur time, erase the lines one at a time and make that form again but with fur. This is linked with the point 2

You capture your mood very well in these. Your hair has also been on a journey too :p
To me the last two seem to say "Will this ever end" and then "that was hard but here I am."

I really like your works! You can definitely see through your works not only how your art is improving but also the design choices that you tend to go for. These are really great stuff!

Thanks! It's a good practice to analyse those kind of things that aren't always so noticeable

I love the May 2020 one. It's so simple yet it captivates a very interesting mood

Each iteration is more interesting than the last! You're really nailing what makes a portrait so interesting in your more recent 2... really brilliant!
