I love the slant of the head and colors chosen. I am guessing it's pastels?

A very strong image, Margaret. The oscillating light and form in the colours is lovely. Great work!

Thank you as ever for your encouragement Thomasin. Just looking at your own new work, looks stunning.
Have you ever tried pastels?
I know you like the scuptural effect of paint. Think I'll take the plunge and have a go!

Magaret,

A very powerful head. I especially love the eyes. They speak volumes.
