Wow -- very nice job for someone who just started painting a year ago.

I like the mood and especially the colors on the white sheet.

A couple of suggestions: The shadows on the model's neck and on the hand on our right seem harsh. They might have appeared that way in the reference but for the sake of the painting you might want to soften them.

You might also want to check your drawing in the area of the top of the head. It seems as if it's too small (a very common portrait mistake in the beginning.)

Otherwise, nice job!
