I agree--and she looks like she's about to walk right out of the vision toward the viewer. I love the juxapposition of the very realistic, convincing illusion (wow, those skin tones! the translucent blouse!) and the dreamlike, visionary quality of the space she occupies. She is so alive, so much a teenager of today that there will never be any mistaking the time period in which you painted this. Your dreamlike space is also convincing, but thankfully not sweet and sentimental. It is simple and strong. I'm very, very impressed by how you pulled this off, Sharon!
