I was testing my skills as a painter. Reference from http://www.mediafocusphotos.com/samples/woman.jpg only for the shapes of the facial features and perhaps the expression, in a vague sort of way. Of course I can't draw exact replicas of things, as I am not that skilled.

You say you're not that skilled, but I believe it's all about practice...so the main task for you is to make yourself draw a lot(realistic stuff) and to invest a decent amount time into it.
A good way to do that is to set yourself some interesting goals with your paintings. Such as "Draw him in a way so he looks like a serial killer" ... so that you have some to go crazy with, besides the boring(!) replication process.
Or join a competing where you think "These guys really need to get their asses kicked!" :D
Or just get some inspirational music...it gives you this" I going to create something amazing" feeling.
Or speaking as a man draw some sexy stuff...^^
Just don't make the whole process to a pain in the ass :P
I think you can apply these tips on painting in general. ..practice your skills and on the other side do some experiments.
Seeing your caricatures I guess the creative part is less a problem for you :)
Trust yourself that with a certain amount of time you will be able to get the results you want. ;)
Oh god I'm giving advices although no one requested them -_-
This is kind of silly, but the image I had in mind was Eve (as in Adam and Eve) hearing her first sounds, like all hitting her at once, and the face of bewilderment she might have had.
I guess a lot of my subject matter is fantastical, so a lot of it will be "sexy" because mythical creatures are depicted as such in traditional works. :)
Thank you for the advice, and for taking the time to say all that. :)
