Painted again - Skulls

Description

One of the very first pictures I painted in oils was a skull. We had a real skull back then in art class.
I wanted to paint a skull again and ended up doing it three times to see which technique I am best at.
I think I never got the shape of the skull correctly. As most of my paintings, they are pure practice pieces and not intended as something finished or to be hung on a wall or something.

I would highly appreciate it if you comment which one you like best!

I really like how you use watercolors.  That one is my favorite. The shading looks really nice and the background has a smoky quality to it :)
