What is her character's, persona's story?
One more comment: is that frame size-wise the whole painting or a fragment of original?
Here is an idea that i got while looking at your work. It seems as if this image could be taken even further on - lets suppose she is somehow painted in full
or close to full height figure and with some smart mathematics book in her hand, lets say some classical mathematicians work like Euler's or Newton's. What an effect
that would be - a nun with something like that and painted in exact manner as you/Nicolas did
