Thanks Enzie and Claudemir for taking the time to comment.
Enzie, regarding your question: I originally had somehting else in mind compositionally (photo below is a quick initial idea in pen). Although I liked it, I found the wall behind to be a bit uninteresting and so with the table. By placing the elements on the table and moving the plates to the left on the wall, I figured the eye would move in a sort of circle, clockwise (standing figure-seated figure-table-still life-plates-standing figure), more than in a triangle. Unless it is a classical pyramidal composition, I try to avoid placing main objects dead center. Just a personal preference.
I appreciate your interest.

Claudemir, I did not intend for the seated figure to look younger, just different somehow. But if she looks younger, better still, no?
