I think your model is great, but I am curious as to what effect you were going for with this piece. The purple tones throw me off, they don't seem to add much to the picture, and they really stand out against the green tones.

What I am seeing when I look at the picture is a cool toned scene with the possibility of warmth coming from the sky and the leaves in the foreground, I would like to see the girl fall into one of those catagories as well, but the purple does nothing for me. By coloring her warm it would bring her out of the picture more and show a bit of warmth rising fromt eh sadness that this picture and the cool tones kind of portrey, or by cooling her down with a blue or green would make her fade into the background which would be a more emotional sadness to the shot, with kind of a hopelessness feeling. Just some of the initial reactions I got, take them or leave them.
