I love the loosely-rendered branches/leaves, and the flat, Asian effect it gives to your composition. Also, add my voice to the raves about your lovely flesh tones and the dappled light on her chest.

One thing no one else commented on was the structure of her head; my eye is looking for a little more volume around the back of her head.

Very nice work, and I notice you're exploring different mediums (watercolor, pastel in addition to oils) and your work is getting stronger. What sorts of things are you learning with each medium? (This might be better as a new topic)
