Karin, Peter,

Thank you for your comments. As Mai has also suggested, I will tone down the background to a more neutral color. As I know nothing about glazing, I find I am not brave enough to try the experiment on an almost-finished painting, so I will paint opaque on top.

Peter, the edge of the nose was almost lost on the reference photo, but I did think of the Vermeer painting when I decided to leave it lost.
