Jimmie, this is so beautiful, it just shimmers and glows and draws you right in. I love the colors and the design.

Here's a nit-pick: measure the distance of the stripe on the far left and make sure you are even all the way up with the edge of the paper. You might be off near the top. (I did a striped background recently and that was the thing that most drove me crazy.)

It just occurred to me that most of your graphite drawings of women have the women making eye contact with the viewer and your pastels so far show the women looking away. I'm going to go check this out and make sure but I think I'm right in this. Hmmmmm. Velly eenteresteeng.
