Human figure

My first human figure painting, oil on canvas. In this ocassion I sketched with a brush with burnt sienna directly on the canvas, and began to apply shadows and some colors.
The next session I continued defining forms and enhanced shadows and textures.
Later on I began adding some lights, and defining forms a little more
I continued working with lights and on the background. Finally decides to finish the foot, but I was not very happy with it because the model change the original position.
The last session I continued refining some details, and change the foot position to a more natural one. I do not consider the painting finished, but I abandoned the work for now.
