I love the colors in your portrait, Piety - sort of warm and moody - and the pose and composition are very pleasing. The only 2 things I would do are: 1.) half way down the shirt sleeve to the bottom of the canvas blur the edges together more and more as you go down so that the eye isn't drawn out the bottom of your painting. 2.) Place your signature on the bottom left to give the painting better balance. Other than that, I wouldn't change a thing, it's lovely as it is.
