David,
You're right. I certainly didn't mean "must be". We're talking about whether or not we like the portrait of Elizabeth and why, so I'm just giving my personal preferences. It's difficult to state these things clearly. I read somewhere that "talking about art is like dancing about mathematics".
Also, I don't consider myself qualified to give an "art critique". You won't see me post anything in the critique forum, but I thought I'd say something here, since we're just being asked what we think of the painting.
