in fact, my idea was to give a 18th century feeling, but it sounds that it's more 19th century finally. It's OK, Ingres is one of my heros.

Hi Marina
I kept thinking about this yesterday and realised it was a Vigee Le Brun your expression reminded me of most...

I saw the original recently and was struck with the same sense of her warmth... funnily as I was looking for this reproduction I noticed she found some interesting ways to deal with the problem of joining head to neck! :-)

Just out of curiosity; is this an oil painting or an acrylic painting?

Big congratulations to you, Marina - what a wonderful, well-deserved award! I am so happy for your success! (I'm also envious that you were at the convention. I also really enjoy watching other artists at work.)
