African Folkloric Dancer

This is really nice.  What if you lighten her face a bit and see how you like it?  There are some lovely colors in her blouse that would be nice to see more clearly.  The white space in the upper left is clamoring for attention with its blankness, when I would really like to concentrate on her.  thank you for  putting this one up for critique.

The writing on the wall spoils it a little for me. If it were blurred, I could imagine she were a dancer in a rustic place somewhere in the world. As it is, she becomes a museum re-enactor, which isn't bad, just not as magical.
