Hi Monique,
this is a strong composition but I think that there is a problem with the foreshortening of the arms. I think that details are too crowded around her right arm, hand and elbow area. Details looks too small, compared to the overall composition, in that area.
Try to make a photo that explains things in a more simple way throughout the whole composition.
For instance, the ribs of the back of the chair tangent the body outline. This will be hard to deal with in a painting.
Allan
