LOL - you do have a gift and it shows. I used to do a lot of work with soft pastels until I had a serious allergic reaction. Tried to switch to hard pastels but never got the same satisfaction. A couple years ago upon someone's suggestion I tried again with a different manufacturer - amazing no reaction.
Stupid me then thought I must have dreamed the whole thing and went back to the original manufacturer because I liked the manipubility of the 1st one. Wasn't through laying down the initial layer - and swollen eyes - hairy lungs - the whole nine yards!
Anyway - wanted just to say your work is incredible and Lexie's personality jumps off the page. You have a great touch!
