charming portrait Sarah lovely texture and well drawn

I think the work is very well executed Sarah. I was told that it is artistically acceptable to identify just one facial aspect of the work that fits the person. And I always find something mysterious and interesting and satisfying about the image I don't quite get right. And that's a lot of satisfaction.

Thank you David and Michael for your generous comments. Funnily enough this portrait has morphed into another member of the family, therefore I have got a family likeness in there somehow just not the right one!!!

Pastel, charcoal on Mei Tientes coloured paper. I keep trying to get my Grandsons likeness but, alas I always make him at least three years older than he is! Oh well! Hopefully he will grow into this likeness of him just as he grows into the knitted jumpers I make him.LOL!
