Lowell, part 2

A little pastel goes a long way when the values on the under painting are right.

The vest and jacket have only a little pastel on them. I like that.

I keep fighting off the sensation that, once again, I won't achieve what I want with this subject. Defeatism. I'm usually not prone to it. But, with this painting, I seem to get in my own way.

Sigh.
