Finding which way to go with the figure in this painting has been one of my tasks lately.  She appears ghostlike in the first rendition, and for the other , she is painted in a bright, lime green. Preferring to be somewhere in the middle, I’m going to lighten her up and keep it a matte finish. The walls and windows will be added to.
