I added color
to the background, because I thought it would be easier to lay the final
pastels over the background rather than the other way around.
Here I’ve
added more to the background and begun adding color to the flower.

Looking good. Nice job on that background.
Looking good!
Its a beautiful flower Deb and you're doing it justice. I think its wise to complete the background first. It always impacts values of the focal point otherwise as you proceed.
Thanks Vicki and Rhonda.
Jeanette, thanks for the comment. I'm new to pastels, and thought it made more sense to work the background first or I would smear the rest of the pastel too much!
