Tom, this is just awesome. Your paintings have a very quiet, restrained, almost meditative quality about them - this one perhaps more so. I am deeply impressed at how economical the painting is, in the sense of what you are showing us. Nothing is extraneous, unnecessary. And even though there is a lot going on in the robe, it is all successfully rendered in a narrow value range and doesn't in any way compete with the center of interest - the face, hands. It's definitely not "too much" if you are worried. It's great. I'm captivated.
Some close-ups would be nice...
