Face is drawn perfectly. It was your choice to pick direct light so there's no discussion about it - it really has photorealistic look. Include light spot on her nose.

Only crit is the solution of hear on top of the head. I would expect more precission on it. I can recommend hair tutorial by Elite Enayla on cgtalk: http://forums.cgsociety.org/showthread.php?t=259468

(big sorry to admins for pointing out from GFXartist)

mmmhhh hair are not important subject in portraits i think, Rembrandt (the best portrait artist in my opinion) usually finish the hair with a few fast strokes.

Terrific painting. The hair may not be photo-realistic, but I don't find that it any way makes this anything but a great portraiture. (PS. not contradicting Robert's comment, just adding that while the hair could indeed be improved, the portrait itself is very well done ;) )

The face is really good, love the lighting and details of the eyes and eyebrows and the light on the nose... my only crit is that the hair could have used more work.
