This is a very beautiful painting Arlene. It's difficult to keep it a statue and not make it a real figure. You succeeded greatly on that! The folds are very well painted and I also like the background a lot.
A very nicely done painting, Arlene. You get a really sense of the solidity as well as the antiquity of the sculpture, and your choice of colors makes her almost glow against the background.
