Well, here the light is from the top and backside of the child. Top light is poor for most media, especially drawing media. I like the light to be more direct and from the side so that the light and dark masses are well defined. Pastel will let you off with indirect light. You can flood the whole subject with color and use little shading, but shading is all you have with graphite.
