Portrait of a friend with slices of her art in the background. Trying some C64 palette once again and this time for the first time fully widepixels. Unfortunately I can't show you her face which I used for reference, but here's some of her art:

Nice I love the background mostly, that antialiasing goes perfect. I don't think the green is working on the face, but that's only a matter of taste. The clear green you used in the reflextions on the right side of her face and nose (her right) and mostly the violet-purple shadow you put in the chin is confusing the light direction, and make it look like if the lightsource was down-right. The reflections shouldn't be clearer than te main lightsource unless you make a backlighing composition. Hope it helps.

I like it: The odd colorscheme of the foreground, which is nice in contrast to the warm and delicate background. Although the face seems somewhat stretched and the highligthened areas just affect the edges, it works...

In the old days one could blame odd dimensions on that the PAL/ NTSC-scene was having different pixel-ratios.
