"The Queen" version 2
I decided to abandon the first version of the Queen because her face was in shadow, her eyes were screwed up tight because of the sunlight and I found an image which was more recent (March 2015, rather than 2007). Its a tough call to make, to start again as I had done three days of work on the first image. However, I think it should be worthwhile. I made the background very unfocused, like in the first version and started to block in the shapes.
