Margaret,
Another extraordinary pastel! I like the direction you re taking with respect to color and form: the two seem ever more connected and working together to enhance each other. I admire the way you have placed your model in the composition. There is a tension between his upward gaze or gesture and the top of the head touching the top of the board. Very interesting. And of course you have the gleam of light in the eye which is so evocative of spirit and life.
