Thanks Cynthia, Tim, Elizabeth! I appreciate it very much. I haven't been posting here recently, or even logging-in. But now, well --heck it's like an invitation for a prodigal's return. 
All best.
Juan

Congratulations, Juan! This is a terrific painting and well deserves the prize bestowed. Keep us posted as to your techniques and methods. I'm sure I'm not the only one wondering what materials you use, your palette, etc.

Thanks to all, again.
Linda, your gentle reminder (thank you) has indeed reminded me that I have promised you I would put together a "how-to" on the sharpening of carbon pencils. Believe it or not, I've got it all together, more-or-less, but still have to do a few things before uploading it to my website. I'll let you know when it's "live". I could put something together for palettes as well. I'm in the process of revamping my website (the process is proceeding glacially) and the new one will include some kind of "tips and techniques" section.
Anyhow, all the best.
Juan
