This is a great portrait It really has a classic feel.
It reminds me of kids book covers and such from grade school.
Also the imagery leaves a lot of room for story or metaphors for the viewers own adaptation, creating a much deeper experience.
The detail is fantastic and the composition is downright heartwarming, and the colors definitely inspire.
Great job, really, a fantastic piece.

pastel paper (in this case - Canson Mi-Teintes) has a tooth to it that allows layers upon layers of soft lead to build up GIVING MUCH MORE ROOM (oops, Caps Lock was on

Cool! I love the composition with the figure filling the page with those props. Great background that does not detract any attention from the figure. Your proportions are spot on. You did a really good job of capturing the stance of the "tom boy," with a wonderful countenance to the face. You have a great range of values here to go with some really good palette choices. It's a sterling piece of work!
