I vowed that I was not going to buy any new pastels for this painting. I think I'm going to have to break that vow.

The alizaren and hot pinks are excentuated in this photo and the prior ones. I adjusted but it still looks too blue. After looking at this and again at the original I think I'll keep going on it. I'm also going to shorten the pencil, and remove the wall, add more of the golds in his face, and bring some cool lt. green into the upper left background. His ear has a cool yellow in the highlights which don't show up here.
