My comments: I'm just beginning to chase after the likeness in her sparkley blue eyes after establishing the horizontal composition. The idea is that the subject is not to be ovewhelmed by her surroundings, rather comfortable within them... featuring her prize orchid and favorite reading chair... I plan to add curtain with abstract pastel pattern behind chair on our right in light overall value near natural light source...
