Peggy, thank you for sharing your beautiful painting with us. Your explanation for tweaking some subtle changes into a pose to suggest the potential for motion is food for thought. I've had a habit of straightening out a tilted or angled head without consciously trying to, and I am getting more practiced at fighting it. That has been a little bit of a problem.
I've also slightly altered a pose into a better angle, also unconsciously. Between this and what you've just described, it makes a very good argument against projecting and tracing an image onto the canvas, which my husband, who has had a lot of experience in commercial art, tried (in vain) to convince me to do, to 'save time'.
