Garth,
you seem to have fun with colors!
In comparison with your other pastel we could admire at the PSA conference which had some very nice color qualities, this one looks more vibrant ( colors, strokes ) and it support the subject ( less quiet than your last one).

I really have no experience with pastels, but here is the pastel demo of Gwenneth Barth at the PSC conference:
I remember that she was beginning with a pastel pencil, and was building layers after layers using hard pastels at the beginning and then softer and softer. When she had to stop, she was a bit frustrated because she thought that the interresting part was just coming...
I hope this can help...
