Wow Cynthia, that looks really close. How did you do that? Thanks for posting it.

I took a scan of it and have it also here due to my oft-mentioned uploading problems. I can only scan part of it but it seems true to the original.

You can see there is still quite a bit of glare on the left side, but as the paint is curing I see that side needs to be brought down in value. Actually, I'm seeing a lot of things I wish I could do over. I may have to give this another go.

Thanks!

I just opened it in my Paint Shop Pro, darkened it and increased the contrast.

Lisa, I also like this painting very much, nice color in the shadow side. I especially like the dramatic touch of the red scarf.
