If you say to me, forgive me ... I only paint in acrylic

This is an excellent book.
Or this by the same author.

Thank you Carl and Malc for your recommendations.
I have W. Powell's book and it's indeed good reference.
I never painted an African American in oils before, so I'll have to experiment with the book's recipes.
As a better and quicker solution, I am asking if you would share your own "black skin recipes" that you tried and worked OK.
