Mona - this WIP is actually really cool just like it is...kind of a creepy quality to it with just the eyes and half the veil finished.

The veil is BEAUTIFUL!!! What a gorgeous way to frame her face! I'm loving this piece, Mona!

Thanks ladies! I had a false start on this one, because I tried a new pastel paper that wasn't working well--all the chalk ran right off the surface, so I returned to using Sennelier La Carte pastel paper, and it's going much better. I like working on this color of brown, too.

Wow! Beautiful veil! It's interesting to see how you work. I can already imagine how beautiful it will be when it's done.
