Remarkable drawing!

You and I are on opposite ends of the spectrum when it comes to portrait drawing. I have not spent more than twenty minutes on a single portrait drawing in thirty years! This piece needs no critique.

I always wonder how you can do a pastel with this much detail when the tools are so big! I use soft pastels, Schminke, and finish with Conte Paris pencils. Even the pencils are big and awkward, and only fit for sketch work.

What materials did you use here? Do you use blending tools?
