** Greetings form the Critique Club **

Composition is strong here, a great use of negative space. The color cast however is too yellow throughout. I am assuming you were going for the warm tone feeling, but you are lacking the warmth of reds. The model looks to possibly have red hair - would have loved to see the color come through more. The facial expression does not say independence to me, or freedom from routine. It looks too posed - like a waxed museum piece. The eyes are fixed into a stare. Would have been more convincing if the model was in a more relaxed, care free pose.

I wish this were more rich and not so yellow. Maybe bring up the gray tones a bit more. The light on her cheekbones is nice and the use of negative space works for me. Maybe crop out part of the left side just a smidge.
