Janet,
I like the the painting and the background a lot. Here are some additional suggestions for tweaking it:
1) Lighten the highlights in her hair to increase value range and modeling and give the painting some pop. The reference photo indicates these should be the lightest part of your painting.
2) The pouching under her right eye is too accentuated. Soften the value range here to de-emphasize. Unless she had a bad night on the town, she is too young to have that problem in her face.
3) Bring the gray in the sky down to her right shoulder to allow the highlight there to work and to pull her into the foreground.
i like the improvements in your painting skills that are showing up here. Keep up the good work.
