An old painting of mine

I did this painting as part of my GCSE art exam in which I received a top mark - A. I did have a buyer but I found it was hard to let this one go, so my parents now 'own' it. It seems so timeless but it is in need of a clean up. I did aim for perfection with this painting but my style is far from realism however, I still remember the still life that was set in-front of me and my work leans to more of the impressionist style, which is rather apt since that was what I studied and enjoyed the most in art history.
Maybe, if I can bare it, reproduce it again, it won't be anytime soon.
