Sister Golden Hair Who Has Never Been to Me

SO!  Never got back into the studio to paint until a few days ago.  Here's my princess painting now that I've glued it to a big wrap around canvas.
At this point One can see that there is a paper part of it so I'm working with pigment to incorporate the smaller image in the canvas.  I don't like the purplish on the right side of the canvas so will work to make the whole predominantly warm, with just the blue background shapes being cool along with a little cool on the skin's shadow parts which show very green here, are actually a neutral on the piece.

Don't know if I should finish off her head with hair placed on the canvas or not, at the top.  That could incorporate it into the canvas a bit more.

So worked for a couple hours today and am free to do more tomorrow.

Working title at this point is "Never Been to Me" after a song that describes a person who has been with Princes, done things women are not suppose to do...still is not authentically herself.
