    It certainly is. I’m sure I’ve told you before. Daughter is a great fan. (As is her mother.) Nice subtle colours. Great focus on the eyes. (As I’m looking at the work, in my head I can hear her voice. ) :)

    You’ve done it again Marylyn, stunning image of Audrey and you totally kill me when it comes to pastels.. I can’t seem to blend them right but you on the other hand have done a smashing job with a limited palette of colour.. Big Kudos from me ;)

    Superb pastel drawing on the black paper. A sort of inversion, to my normal paint colour on white!

    Very fine portrait skin tones, shading and expression, Marilyn.
