Very good for a first portrait!
I agree with Steven that the circle (saw blade?) to the right of the head is distracting. I also think you should tone down the backgroung to make the person stand out.
You might want to check out the shape of the palette on the hat, it seems a little distorted.
You did a very good job on the face, good detail, nice skin color.
