You just post as much as you like! Your work is anything but boring! That first pastel REALLY pops with the dark background. Very dramatic! I like the work on her skin and hair.

Seeing the older lady right below....makes HER portrait seem unfinished. I would love to see you continue making that dark background around her and maybe add more detail to her hair. Her left eye (my left) looks much bigger than her right.

Love the first one, there is something lopsided with the old lady not sure if it is the eye or the ear. However they are both expresive.
