This is Brenda Redding who modeled for my Pastel Portrait class. She is a lovely woman and I hope one day to be able to work with her again. She has a natural classy sweetness that I feel I did not capture. I would love to paint her in oils...or even attempt another pastel of her...but this time I would have her in a more natural pose. This pose was for several artists and she had to sit in a position that would work for all of us. It was a good experience and made me want to really learn to work with pastels more. Thank you, Brenda for doing such a lovely job!
