If this were my photo (sooo jealous) I would plan a painting at least 24" x 30".... if it were mine. IF... (green with envy).
Well, IF it were yours, (but it's not, lol)......would you do the uncropped whole studio version, her off centered, or would you do the cropped closer version.....that would be IF it were yours, even though it's not......

BTW....I went to your site....very wonderful work....wonderful...(this picture lends itself to your soft approach...I'll have to study your work) and also drifted off to see your husband's cartooning site...very witty and impressive..you two must be a very fun couple!!

Please do let me know which view you prefer.....the cropped version is all about her...the uncropped version (needs straightening, I think, as I did with the cropped one)..is more about the dance theme. What do you think?

AND, which size canvas for each version? When you suggested the size you did, which version was that for?
