First of all, I have to say this amazing work. I had to study it really close, because, at first, I thought it was a black and white photo pasted on a red background.

So in other words, your painting skills are convincing.
I can't pretend to know much about pop art, but I think there is a little to much light on her chest and it is a little to dark on the right arm.
I also wish there were some kind of shadow, because, as I said it looks like a cut out and paste picture.
But for all I know it's meant to be that way...

As I said, your painting skills are very convincing. You do a lot of details and they are really good. On the dress there is very good use of shading, I like that.
I also like the fact that not all of the face is showing. And I like the way she bites the perls.

The way you use the background is very interesting. The red color makes the painting really stand out and makes that more visible.

All in all, you did an amazing job! Keep it up
