Just a thought

I hope you wont mind if I make a few more suggestions. I make these comments from fear that you mite lose the brilliance that is already there in her dress and complexion. Please do not misunderstand me I do agree with Allan in what he says in regard to light and shadow relationships but in this situation, in my humble opinion, it is not the way to solve the problem.

Your painting is finished and well done as is but a few minute touches. My suggestions are not a must but something to consider without making major changes.

In addition to my previous post please consider the following. I have indicated but a few places where you can soften some edges like the left elbow, chest area, jaw line and ear (not above the ear). This will give your subject a better indication of form. On the leg I suggest you introduce a halftone, where indicated, this to will give the indication of form as well.

Sincere regards,
mischa
