Hi Beth,
The photographs look very grainy.
The skin tones that border on the hair on the left side of her forehead has a very sharp edge.
I think the upper lip of her mouth needs special attention.
I don't really like the blue-ish background to be honest. Maybe, in future paintings you could try a cool grey instead of blue? - Just a suggestion. The background also seems a bit illogical to me. While the light comes from the left she should cast a shadow on the right of her. Instead of that, I see that it becomes lighter in your painting. (don't change it too much, but for future paintings, maybe it's something to look after.)
Greetings,
Peter
