This is a nice portrait. It has a good feel to it, and I always like to see limited palette paintings that do a lot with a few colors.
It would help if you posted a larger image, but I'll tell you what I see. I see a problem with her ears. First, they don't match. They are two different shapes entirely. Second, the ear in shadow seems to have more definition and detail than the lighted one. Shadows steal detail, so you could have gotten away with a mere suggestion of an ear on the shadow side. Not just "get away" with it, but enhance your painting by using less detail.
That's about all I have to say, but I'd like to see a larger image. Overall, it's a very pleasing piece.
Edit: I just re-read your post and saw your link to the larger image. Thanks. I must have rushed through it the first time.
