Mary,

I love these childrens pastels you do - I am wanting to try them again after watching these, I just hate to take the time to learn something all together new right now. Not to mention the investment! There is something about pastels though, that are just so...soft. Perfect for children.

To me, her eyes look too big perhaps, maybe there is a slant missing. The eyebrows also. The eyes come forward a bit too much- need to be pushed back? Her lips are more pronounced in the photo, I think. Perhaps darken the cheek shadow (on our left).

Of course as I write this the photo isn't in front of me anymore.
