Hi Marina, yes long time. When we get working we at times do not know how to rest. This is a portrait well done.

Allow me to suggest a thing or two that mite start you thinking. First, when I compare the dark part of the eye one to the other there is a difference in size. I would have a look if it is so in real life even at a angle or perspective.

Even though that this is a simple drawing I think I would indicate the planes of the chin and around the moth a bit more. I think that if you do this it will relate to the structure of the face better and partner with the nice nose.

You have depicted the hair quite nicely still the front, on the for-head seems like a bad haircut.

One more thing, on the light side the light line that runs from the nose across and bottom of the cheek seems to light and resembles a gash or a channel. Even though the cheek in light is receiving most of the light one should be able to notice the planes of the face.

I hope I struck a chord of inspiration.

All the best to you
