Kim,

Don't try to shrink her down to fit her all in. As Marvin has said, do what YOU THINK will make a beautiful portrait. That is your job. Try to put his portrait out of your mind as that is what I have been trying to do since I saw it.

One of the paintings that seems to me, of yours that could be adapted is the prairie girl. Since Lady Bird Johnson planted Texas wildflowers all over the place, that could be a part of your Texas theme.

Just close your eyes and visualize the best picture of ANY SIZE you could paint of this subject and fight for it.
