Re: Hi Karen

Karen, Yes, that would solve the problem but even with a restretch on 16" x 20" canvas stretchers, she's still too low in the painting. You know, I put up the worst portrait I have for a critique because that's the one that was driving me crazy. As usual there are some paintings that just need to be ditched and this one may be a candidate. I am going to try one last thing by lightening up the value in the background. I have five months left to get the body of portraits done, so there's still time to start a new one. Thanks, I thought that cropping was a good idea. Plus I am so glad you posted all that lighting advice.

Renee
