I like the work in the head area of the portrait, especially the hair. I wonder if you could have used a different background? Perhaps there is too much aqua color. It is like the face and hair have no connection to the colors anywhere else. Easy to criticize, but hard to do. I always have trouble with redheads deciding on a background. It seems that I always really need to use colors that are very toned down for redheads in order to avoid the clashy effects of blues and greens with red, even though green is the complimentary color.
