I'll just throw my two cents worth here. Do not try to create a pendant to someone else's painting. Do a painting that's uniquely yours that puts the existing painting to shame. Make them want to commission you to redo the husband's painting since the one you'll do will be so much better. I'd probably place her indoors for starters, but that's just the kind of guy I am.
