WOW. This is really fine. I do believe your work is getting stronger and stronger. The whole piece is rendered with such confidence and such exquisite sensitivity, especially the woman's clothing and how it all fades into the tone of the paper. Your judicious use of white is just right. Beautiful.
Don't give up on pastels. I'm working on my first two now and, like you, I'm having "issues" with this medium. I can see it's potential, though, and understand how people can get addicted to it. I also think, for people like you and I, it can be a good segue into the realm of painting. Keep working at color. All of your frustrations, disappointments, stresses are important - necessary - and will pay off - in your case, handsomely - down the road.
