I just starting working on this avatar & need suggestions on how to improve it. Anyone who is able to suggest an item/tektek/etc that I like will be tipped via trade. Thanks x
Hmm... why don't you give her a book to hold? That'll do something with the hands and make the pose more interesting. Earrings, a necklace, perhaps some reading glasses would add some nice detail as well.
I definitely think she should be holding something. As Idzuno said, a book is a great idea. Perhaps "Red Sketchbook" which can be bought pretty cheap from H.R. Wesley. The color would go pretty nicely with your avi.
