Too many r's in the earing :) (edited: my spelling is really bad!)
A very good attempt to recreate Vermeer, great light and the model although missing a bit of the innocence of the original.

Nice use of grain for painterly effect. What Vermeer's might have looked like a few years after.

Lovely light, beautiful girl. The grain works to give it the textured feel of the painting it replicates.

Voted earlier, bumping up, and coming back to comment.

Very nice nod to Vermeer's classic painting. Lighting, expression, and model dress & pose are fantastic! I love the image grain here for it gives it a textural feel to compliment the nod to a painting. Also, the brown dress/cowl now has a feel and look of wool. Well done - hope to see this in the top 10.
