Sharon, oh my, thanks! I do love that ground (thanks again) and am still experimenting with it. If I could plan my pieces better I could arrange the texture to vary in the right way but I am a way off from that still. I absolutely agree that everyone should try pastels. No drying time to wade through so whenever one is so inspired one can paint right away! Thank you so much.
Allan, well hello! Thank you for taking a peek. I really think my model has such a simple yet elegant look to her. I am glad you see it too.
Jane, what an absolutely flattering compliment. I appreciate your words so much.

Lisa,
Please forgive me for being so late, but I just came across this jaw-dropping portrait. At this point all I can do is echo everyone else's praise--so Wow, Wow, Wow! If you ever make prints please sign me up for one.

Lisa, I am late also. Although I did see this earlier.
I simply did not know what to say to a portrait made of pastel with such incredible detail.
Simply marvellous.!!

David, David, David, you have a new friend for life. I'll be over for dinner tomorrow. Coming from the pastel genius, your comments went straight to my head which exploded on impact and forced me to retire. Thank you!
So, did you go anywhere fun while we were all working our fingers to the bone to try to catch up to half your skill level?
