Im really not sure what to do. i want to focus on portraits

but i also want to do composites in Photoshop and then paint over them in Photosho like the one i have below. They would be in this same type of theme. Maybe black and white or sepia. Not exactly sure yet.

Something like this maybe, but painted over:

Here are the portraits i was thinking of painting over if that’s the direction i want to go.
