Nice job on a lovely subject.

The higher contrast of the hair does not seem to match the lower contrast of the face. Perhaps it would be easier to critique if you included the reference photo. It takes a bit of daring to include the dark values in a portrait, especially when there is a strong light source.

I understand the timidity when drawing those you love. It is tough!
