Season in Swimsuit - Summer

The first from my "Season in Swimsuit" series. I made this picture thinking of Summer, though I never experience Summer myself (I live in tropical climate country). I don't know if there are lots of clouds in summer...

Actually, I made this piece to practice my BG, so I think the hardest part in this picture is the BG... This is the second piece I made that have "real" BG in it. The easiest part of BG is the palm leaves, I really enjoyed myself when making it. After I finished this piece, I just realized that I made the clouds too big, making them seems to close (they supposed to be far at the horizon). I must say it myself that the BG is awful, the pose is bad (making her right hand seems missing), and there are still lots of other mistakes. Well, I'm guess I'm still learning and have to learn lots of things.

Anyway, if you have any critiques and comments, please don't hesitate to post. It will be a lot appreciated.
