Hi all,  starting this new one.. selected some good parts of the image and applied levels in rgb's - adjusted black and white points in curves and found a neutral gray..The Great Muckerupper has been busy  :cool:

Thanks Margie and Lyn... there was something bothering me about the final.. it looked like the picture in the background was suspended in air so I toned down the brightness of the wall a little.. I think it's better??

Great job Lynn!  The lady's face is back and I like your solution for the floating painting. 
I darkened the area between the chair and tree with a level layer and a radial gradient in the mask.
There also was a vertical yellowish streak in the tree that I colored like the rest of the tree.

Lynn, like how you took the "float" off the wall and Hannie, your tweaks took it over the top. Wonderful.

Someone has great eyes.  I can't see half the things you guys did!  Keep on keeping on.  Humbled....
