Howdy there, from ProjectComment !
I LOVE the added color to this piece, the red makes for a nice visual metaphor for blood diluted in rain. The shading over her body is astronomically effective in creating a realistic anatomy. In the absence of a regular environmental background, you've created a kind of surreal hail of rain and ash (from my interpretation) which really adds to the atmosphere of the work, giving the audience a chance at deciphering why this lovely character is so sad. They way you've mirrored her form below her is also fantastically done, with ripples and blurs in all the right places to give the effect of a puddle.
Perhaps the only thing I can spot in this work that could be paid more attention is the mouth, only because it seems she is absent of lips, which I feel could have added to her expression considerably, but other than that her eyes and nose are incredibly well drawn, and the shading on the cheeks and underneath the eye is spot-on.
Overall this is a fantastic piece filled with emotion and sound artistic ability. This is definitely going in my favorites gallery for later inspiration!
Your understanding of anatomy is clear and incredibly well executed, and I hope you continue to make beautiful artworks such as this one in the future.
Have a wonderful day!

Your work on the reflection is excellent. however, it's a little unclear where the reflection is coming from, or what this creature is kneeling on. The background looks like all sky. Maybe making the bottom part a tad darker; or adding some water splashes for when the rain hits where the ground is could help a wee it.
That asside, you did a fantastic job drawing the body, wings and face. The position is perfect, and you can clearly see the anguish in her face and the way the wings are placed help draw your eyes right to that face and that pain. A bit more texture in the wings may of been ascetically pleasing, but I feel like that's nit picking at this point.
One other thing: I'm a fan of integrating words into art, but I read the text as "Only If" which can completely change the context. If this is something the person in the picture is thinking, I would recommend maybe having the text wrap around their head or body in a smaller font; or place it behind them with the colour being a less bold choice
