Hi Mary
First let me say that there is a lot to like about this painting! The way you've handled the sunshine on her skin and the bouquet - the sense of movement and purpose and the warmth of the day-- kudos!
A couple of quick thoughts:
- I'd like to see her eyes a little more - that area seems a little too low in contrast... but maybe that's just me - I like eyes!
- Not sure about the lighting on her lower cheek (our left)... since her lips are shading her chin, I'm reading the sun as fairly overhead & to our right and it seems like that plane would be more in shadow? Is it reflected light from the flowers maybe? maybe brighter than it should be?
- On the ground below her arm at our right, not sure what the green flower-like circle is there or if you need it. . .?
Love how you've handled the sun on her hair!
