I'm getting the hang of this

I did it! The live caricaturing went well. I could do with speeding up but I wasn't nearly as nervous this time! As last time, things were slow initialy but then they desended! I even enjoyed myself so maybe I'll be doing more. I must work out some stock body poses though! Practice, practice!

Today I decided to paint lilies. This is my second attempt in pastel on velour paper, a first for me. (Before you ask it is technically painting, although that still puzzles me!) It's an interesting surface to work with and doesn't smudge like regular paper.
