A magnificent piece of portraiture Michele. To do that with pastels is incredible. I'd be hard put to draw a hopscotch square with mine.

This is beautiful Michele. The skin tones are gorgeous and the hair fabulous. I also really like that you left areas unfinished.

Your choice of ground colour is always spot on for your image. Another beautiful work
