Linda, don't be discouraged. Steven had some good remarks that you can take to heart. Basics are for all of us. I agree with the background comment. The background you chose looks like the child is floating on her back in a tub of water. A background needs to fulfill a purpose - contrast, emphasis, etc. It can come and go. It can be just on one side. It can add flare to the composition. The trouble with a background; once you have done it, you cannot undo it. I rarely use a background in pencil drawing.
There are all kinds of posts here. This is a section for those who are asking for critiques, not a professional section. Students are encouraged to post here, as far as I know. I have never known anyone in SOG in the past to discourage anyone from posting. It is usually pretty friendly around here.
