Sharon,

I think I tried everything with the exception of lowering the light. I plan on taking the weekend and playing around with different lighting in my studio to see what effects I can come up with. I'll try lowering the light also.

I saw in a recent issue of the Artist's Magazine where Nelson Shanks had painted a young girl with similiar lighting to what I have here, particularly the cast shadow behind her nose. It was almost identical.
Studying his handling of the shadow pattern is really helping me with this one as are all of the suggestions I have received here so far.
