Hello Flladi,

This is a lovely painting, such intense eyes for a little girl. The texture of her hair is very nice.

I have to disagree, I don't think that her fingers look cut off. I like how the pinky curls around the fingers. If you think there is a problem you may want to take a look at the value of the pinky on her left hand. Darkening it may round out the hand as a whole.

I think you achieved the depth just fine but the arm of the chair just above her head might be a little too sharp.

I'm not sure about the colors of the chair. You incorporated many different colors for color harmony purposes but the combination comes off as almost iridescent and I'm not sure what the color of the chair actually is.

No matter what it is a fantastic painting, beautiful portrait.
