This is a lovely portrait of your beautiful daughters face with extraordinarily beautiful eyes. You have done an excellent job on all of her features and beautiful hair. Very lovely.

This is a very impressive portraits. The face features, in my opinion, are very accurate. I love how her dark hair makes her skin tone stand out. You did an incredible job on the details and this portrait looks so realistic :) Thanks for sharing and have a wonderful day :)

She is a beautiful young lady. This is a wonderful portrait. What puzzles me is that you show more from the chin down and cut off the top of the head. You state you goal is 'concentrating on facial featues and hair', perhaps it is the camera shot? I realize this is about balance and you draw very well with pencil. The thing that is difficult for me is that the face is washed out without the shading and detail. I am not counting down for that because it is a specific composition the contest calls for, which is balance. Good Luck with the competition

Very pretty daughter the facial express you caught are very good. The picture is kind of grainy and little blurry. But, I like the overall picture the features and the high cheek bones of your daughter are very good stand out. Good job..
