Jan,
I like your portrait of Camille, the assistant and mistress of Rodin, and think that you have got a striking likeness. I also like your color choice.

If you want to take it farther I would suggest to work on the shadow side of the face by darkening the general tone and marking the chin features.

I like very much the way you simplify, or summarize, the details like the hair and the dress, the way you draw with a full brush - very mature. But I think that the painting could be better if you would take the features to a more sculptural level.

Allan
