Moving on to work on the head and hand of the figure and stepping back I can see that I have made the hand too small in comparison to her face. I need to rework this. Taking pictures of my hand against my face was a good way to be able to re-visit and paint this area again.

After experimenting I think I have got the size of the hand about right compared to the face.
