I absolutely love this. The lighting is so well thought out that at first I thought it was a painting. Her skin looks luminous because of how subtle the contrast between the warm and cool light is. The expression on her face reminds me of the Mona Lisa in a way. You know she has a secret that she is unwilling to reveal. Her expression is closed off in a way that lets you know that no matter how much of her body is on display you will never know the 'real' her - what lies behind her eyes. She continues the closed expression even in the lines of her body (almost no negative space). But, both lines of her arms bring your eye back to her face. Her right arm creates a perfectly implied line with her eyes and the yellow paint embellishments on the headboard almost FORCE you to continually look into her eyes as if they were trapping you. All in all an amazing work.
