Debra, I had a head and shoulder's go at an auction and am still waiting too. But I told them I had to work from her live or one of my photos, so maybe that is why they are dragging their heels. They paid a lot to not use it.
I love your use of line with the pastel here. I have always been too chicken to really give it a go. The one thing that stands out to me, even if the photo doesn't show it, I would accentuate the nostril on our right. So much of her lower nose tip shows it looks like she might have the reverse of Michael Jackson. This could be one of those "flaws" I've talked about too!
Very nice!
