I like the soft, watercolored look that you achieve in a lot of your colored art! That softness, and the organic texture it creates always appeals to me. And I think you pull it off really well!
Again, I love the hair. It's in motion, fluttering to the side, and I like how the lines of the different strands communicate that motion and movement, and how the lighting and coloring reinforces it, further getting that sense of motion across.
The coloring throughout it is great. I like how the different textures and fabrics of her outfit look and feel different -- her shorts are different from her shirt, her boots are a different texture, and of course the light fabric of the light blue ribbon-thingy she's wrapped up in. All of those different textures add a sense of realism to the pic.
Her pose and expression are good -- they do well in letting her show off that she's cute, and there's a playful, if reserved, mood and energy coming through. Your art is really great, though I think I'd like if the pose and expression here were a little more..."loud." A little more exaggerated, to bring the energy up a little more. I struggle with that a LOT, and I think your art has a lot to offer overall, but if I had to critique something, that would be it.
But this is really cute, and I think your art in general as I go through your gallery is really cute. I love your way with color, and I love the energy and flow and softness that you draw hair with, no matter what style its in. Your art has a cute personality to it, and I think it's cool. : )
