Denise,

I gotta run, I'll try to give some comments on the "real" painting soon. The second photo is much better, but lots of glare on the shadow side of her head. The best way to photo these is to place the light source at as high an angle as possible above the painting. Look at how they do it in galleries or museums. That way the reflected glare is all down toward the floor, not straight back out towards your eye or camera.
