Hi Margaret, another lovely painting. I like the texture you've managed to get in her hair and the background. I've never had much success mixing watercolour and pastel but you've inspired me to keep trying. Val

Well I absolutely love it. It is so unusual. Classical look. Wish I had a long neck. That's beside tthe point! I love the effect you have got with the hair. Possibly a little darker maybe the lipstick colour contrasting in the background to bring the hair out more. (what do your think?) Smashing. Those eyelids!! Jeannette x

Hello Margaret, Thank you for your comments on the Degas. I used my fingers on the faces, body, and some of the background. Do you know one little mark on those small faces and they really become ugly!!
