Immortal Life an oil painting of Sarah Chang

Immortal Life.
This is an oil painting of Sarah Chang when she was a little girl.
The background is the Pillars of Creation a star-forming region in the Eagle Nebula (M16).
I have tried to echo the background in her fingers and in the creases of her dress. There is also a similarity between the flowers on her blouse and the stars. I have curved the background slightly around her because I wanted it to look as though she is in the centre of her own universe.
