You have certainly done justice to your source.  Much about your 
accomplishment is superb, but one think really rocks me, and stays with 
me is the fall of the drapery.  As far as the face, you have gone very 
far towards achieving that Vermeerian sense of enduring, elemental 
shape.  I am picturing your method as one of constantly redoing the 
model from scratch in order to achieve that light touch and sense of 
simple means.
