Thanks all,

The close-ups do look a bit looser, I agree, but I'm comparing the overall picture to the last pastel I did which I am happier with the application. I would like to do more with the next one.

She's much different in person, always smiling, very sweet. As soon as she posed, I asked no smile, and this is what I got. I thought it was perfect.

I am totally impressed with your claim to have filled the tooth of your Wallis paper, too! The first person I know of to have accomplished that feat.
I went a few layers with just the first version of the shirt. Then, a few more when I tried toning it down with gray. Necklace was covered, more layers. Different necklace also covered, more layers with brighter blues after receiving my set of Unisons. Lastly, added oranges in the shirt, then covered again. I don't even know what layer I'm up to, but Wallis claims to hold 25 layers and I definitely surpassed that!

I am sure that you could loosen up a bit and show another side of your talent. Would like to see it.
Ha, I'd like to see it also.
