Holly,I think it is very nice and well constructed, definetely the structure of the drawing underneath is convincing.The brushwork is lively and I think it is a well accomplished alla prima painting.
You also managed to paint the teeth, that I find always very disturbing, so that they 'fit in' very well.
Is this Nicole Kidman? It looks like her.
If I have to find a defect , to me it looks a bit too warm in the lights, and the orange is also enhanced by choosing a green background, maybe you could have greyed down some colours a little.

Many compliments, very painterly...
Ilaria
