Reading the story, it seems like you should have mentioned "(nudity)" in 
the title of your post.  :-))

I like both abstract and realistic scenes, they both have their 
artistical point of view. And I think that like in painting, doing 
realistic (classic I might say) scenes is the best training toward a 
really free expression that is required to do real artistic and 
potentially abstract work (Picasso is a good example).

Still your image is cool, and I might try your 'having a story in mind' 
tip sometimes,
