    Really nicely done. The drawing of the face is excellent and beautifully expressive.

    Main areas I think you should address:

    * The shadow on the cheek is a little bit too hard, it grabs my eye away from her eyes and doesn’t explain the softness of the flesh there, as contrasted against the hardness of the cheekbone. I think this is worth doing even if it means departing from the reference.

    * The shadow edges of the breasts also look too hard, they give the form an angularity that looks odd and is distracting

    * I feel like there’s too much space above the head. I would crop it maybe halfway between the upper edge of the canvas and the top of the dark circle.
