Nice work. I really like this portrait, especially the delicate skin tones and the color overall. The curve of her back lends to the overall design.
I realize that this is very subjective but my one suggestion would be to leave a little more space above her head.
Close cropping a photograph seldom bothers me, but in a portrait, I feel that the figure needs "some breathing room." It is also a good opportunity to make more of the abstract compositional element of negative space.
