The lighting was a bit difficult, it was coming from her right, but almost behind her as if backlit. Not much in the way of shadowing, it was a challenge to model the face properly but I think I got it.

Veronica for Dan - #2, Pastel, 11" x 12 1/2", painted on Wallis Belgium Mist
I know I haven't posted a painting in a while, life has gotten in the way but I'm now hoping to get back on track. I had this one on the easel for quite a while, I just wasn't able to complete it until just yesterday. I'm quite glad it is done, I really hate it when something sits for too long in an unfinished state.
