Starting a New Pastel Portrait



Just started this one. I am thankful to be busy this year.
Also thankful to have subject matter that I like.
Pastel on Canson paper


Almost done. I will step away for a day or two and come back with fresh eyes. I already see that I need to make an adjustment on the nose (too wide). 

  
I went ahead and made some final adjustments 
This is closer to the true color of the image.

Maria is to be congratulated by the works he has done.
Note to quality and technique, with a good distribution of light and color.
