Observing People & Ballet Dancers

On a recent trip to Texas, I took the opportunity to sketch/paint this woman above, I liked her little bird lips! And I experimented with colors on her face. Kind of reminded me of someone I know.
The second sketch was done last year at tea time in a Canadian hotel, but I recently decided to add color to it.
And this last I sketched while we were at a recent Pacific NW ballet performance, and again, added the colors later. I didn't like my 1st small figure and proceeded to sketch right over & around it...
