Thank-you Enzie and Alex. Alex, it is funny you should mention the painting's not ever being finished, because I just redid it this afternoon and posted the new images just a few moments ago. I am very pleased you appreciate the light - it was something that kept on nagging at me to get clearer and clearer, and it is is so difficult not to overdo it, which I did many many times.
So, Enzie, regarding what I just said to Alex, the paint is more scraped off than applied thickly, although there are some thick parts especially in the lightest parts. The shadow areas are more pressed down into the canvas, and the lights and whites scumbled on. I have attached a picture of the surface from the side, so you can see it is not all that thickly painted, more the remnants of layers that were discarded during the process.
