I really enjoy the composition on this one! The pushed to the side pose and the stripe coming down into her shoulder, dark background and light subject - very effective!
You know that wall. The green studio paint and greener blackboard.
Looking now, I went a bit overboard on her shoulders, but I was pretty happy with the skin tones. I got the direct pose. Had to talk her into looking at the top of my easel. She kept chuckling at me making my art faces.
