thanks so much for the comments. It's not so obvious in the photo but in the original painting you can see a face in the clouds - lol it's a bit spooky how many of my paintings end up with faces!! Have a great weekend folks Sue :)

Thanks Elaine, it's still a bit sore but I think the main problem might have been a mosquito bite on the upper eye lid, sure was painful. It still looks a bit yuck but I can see better :) I worry about my eyes as I'm borderline Glucomia - hoping it doesn't develop further as the optomitrist said once treatment starts it's for life. LOL Urlee I noticed that too but Peter always says there are NO mistakes in art. It's a painting not a photograph so adding interest with extra reflections etc is artistic expression at it's finest :) HUGS Sue :)

Sue, I agree that is your best yet! Just beautiful. This one could take you over the top and we can all say " I knew her when". Carol

Thank You ladies. lol it was a little like being back at school and coloring between the lines we drew. Peter (the teacher) said later on down the track he will do another pastel class. He gave us all our own set so we can practice and play at home but I will have to buy the special paper if I want to do that. Hope you are all having a great weekend Sue :)
