Great job, Beth!
This is really impressive. I, too, like the way you've made her look as though she is of her own time period, but with a contemporary feeling. There's a real tension between past and present. It must have been complex to bring together all your references, but you certainly did it well. Am I the only one who doesn't know the background information of this portrait? Obviously she is a relative, but beyond that I don't know. Can you fill me in or is there a thread on this forum that tells more?
