This is really nice, Dan. I like the crisp blue/green/orange contrasts. Nice drawing, too. A pretty girl without the sentimentality.

If I had to mention anything at all, I would suggest downplaying the contrast between that cream colored shirt and the shadow of the orange jacket. It seems to be drawing attention away from the subject's face.

Do you want a critique for likeness? If so, then post the original photo too.
