Gorgeous. I love the play of the matte fills on the body versus the more roundly rendered hands and head. The composition is generally very good, but I do feel a little tension because of the aforementioned rendering choice. The pose and discontinuity of the face to the body wants me to center my looking on the head-body-void axis, but the discontinuity of the hands wants me to look to the left. Not a super big deal, but the visual weight of the piece ends up a little imbalanced. I wonder if a little something on the boots or flat hands would resolve that, although it would he a great shame to lose that lovely rendering of the hands - that thumb and forefinger have such delightful shape.
Might even work with a little shadow play on the hose on the order of what you’ve got going on on the dress?
There’s something refreshing about an artistically stylized painting like this. When I go by a gallery, I often stop and look at these the longest over the more pretentious pieces.
Slav squats
This is legit. I love the facial expression - could be viewed in a lot of ways.

Great job. The stroke coming from the lower lip kinda bugs me.
Looks like Margarita Terekhova
The shading being only on the face creates a nice effect.
