Hello Carolyn,
I have nothing negative to say about the way you handled the figure. I like everything about it, the fresh handling that David spoke about. I also like the "landscape" format, and perhaps this is where my only comment lies: I would add some colour to the right side of the paper if not a minor object or element altogether, just to balance off but not detract from the face which, I repeat, I would not touch.
This did take long to do? I haven't worked in pastels for eons although I do remember how much fun it can be. I used to know someone who would work in pastels but with a brush and he would come up with very highly finished portraits. Personally I like the fresher, more spontaneous look.
Happy new year to you too.
Carlos
