Hi Mary,

I would paint this in a minute. It's a wonderful example of the beauty and variations in the color white. The composition is interesting and natural as well. The window is the only thing I would change. Perhaps making it a blank wall, light in color, receding.. The vertical lines of the sofa help bring the eye up away from the strong horizontals. I wouldn't make the stripes so dark, just a tad lighter. You may have to design the folds slightly to bring the compostion back to the girl. It reminds me so much of Cassat's Girl in the Blue Chair. Go for it!

P.S. How's that baby doing??
