David- Thank you so much. I also prefer to do portraits without a big smile. Rory didn't want to sit still for photos and wasn't happy that I had a camera constantly pointed at her.
Jimmie- Before, I was using Canson and just couldn't achieve the many layers I need to build up my surface (i'm rather heavy handed with pastels). I love the surface of the Pastelboard and with the grey I feel I'm more acurate with my values. However, it has been hard to get used to working on such a hard surface after working on paper. I just got some Wallis, which I've noticed you've been working on and can't wait to try it, however I have to learn how to mount it.
I so admire the work you both post and really appreciate your comments.
