dj*, not sure what you mean by

I am trying to do the juggle between figurative and purely descriptive. I am having a hard time finding a style.
Your strokes are very much in your usual style and say "Debra Jones" to me. The chair is well-delineated but because it's so much lighter it fights the figure for dominance in the picture. And I'm not used to you putting so much shadow in the flesh tones, particularly in the face. Aside from those details I think it's a good portrait, and because you have the person within a setting, it tells a bit more about her, don't you think, than a simple head rendition?
