Could be better if the top of the canvas is cropped. Not sure why you wanted to leave that blank space 0v0

in Chinese traditional painting that is called blankοΌleaving white on the canvas.

Heard of that before. I have the impression that the technique is more commonly used in landscape painting. Never saw an example of using that in a portrait tho 0v0

The white space helps give to the feeling of openness and purity, like nothing is too crowded and I honestly think it adds beauty to the piece.

I suppose. Meanwhile I have to say that the bottom of the canvas looks very crowded in contrast.

That's another reason for leaving the blank space. To help balance out the crowded feeling. I see artists do it all the time and I think it's actually really beautiful.

Fair enough. Perhaps I am too inexperienced to understand that atm
Thanks for sharing your thoughts tho
