I believe the upper lip needs to tilt up more on the right, and something is not right about the jaw line. For whatever reason it bothers me that the top of her chest is lighter than her face, but that is how it appears in the photo. Would you darken the chest so that there is more emphasis on the face?

I had put this painting down for 2-3 weeks while I finished up another, but when I came back to it, the black background rubbed off on my fingers still! I am trying to recall whether it was my ivory black or lamp black that caused this.
