I like the way you painted the lady, the hand and wrist with the realism of even the blood veins. If this were my piece, I would not be quite happy with the background. It is brighter than the hair, which is subdued. Perhaps the background was painted after the portrait was done, rather than as it went along. It seems to crop the figure, rather than enhance it. I think I would have incorporated the background into the figure a bit more perhaps by color choice, or perhaps by painting it as the portrait evolved with some of the feeling that is in the portrait itself. It does not have the same feeling that the figure does. There could be more softness in the background, to go along with the soft expression in the figure.
