Hope you like this portrait I have drawn of my friend Janet Gioffre Harrington. She's an artist of many talents, and I admire her for being able to put her art to work for her, eventhough it's something she loves to do. She says she likes this picture, but this has been one hard job. It was my second pastel portait. Not oil pastel, but the chalky kind. Janet's also another brave soul to have let me attempt this. Thanks Janet Gioffre Harrington.
