WikiProject Biography Assessment

Barely a Start class - the painting image makes it - but more detail and citations would boost this article.

For this course I will be making major edits on this article.

I plan on expanding the introduction with some basic background information about her family, life, work and reception both during her life and after her death.
For the biography section I plan on splitting the information with subheadings. I will also cite and condense the information given on her early life and family. I also will reorganize the writing to create an easier reading flow.
I will be expanding the works section greatly, adding citations where they are missing as well as adding more relevant information. I will add subheadings for information on her style, her patronage, etc.
I want to create a separate gallery section with a few more examples of her work.
I will also add a section about her reception and reputation as a successful woman artist in the 17th century. Including information about reception during her life and beyond.
