HI Mike
What a great friend you are, and from what you describe, you seem to have hit the bullseye in re-creating her vision of the image.
My concern is that this is a technically great shot and as an image its already great, with no "wants". I just don't see how turning this image into a painting is going to make it better. In fact, I worry about such things like the pattern created by the sweater (which is just fine in the photo) may be distracting (once it's a painting) to the focus of the face and hands.
I don't mean to be negative, just caution that perhaps the thing to do is to really have a conscious strategy before starting the painting, so that she in control of what the whole point of and visual focus of the painting are supposed to be.
She's lucky to have such a helpful friend.
Linda
