Did some minor refinements to the image, mostly in regards to lighting. I think I'm calling this finished for now as I'd like to move on to a new painting. Here is the final:
You did make some changes, but the direction of the staff light's illumination looks like it's coming from behind her instead of actually in her hands and in front of her forearms, and you have the green light also illuminating the bottom of her arms, which isn't possible based on the position of the staff. If you like, I can do a paintoever to show you.
BTW, thanks for the post in my sketchbook thread. In the past few years, every time I saw you posting something new on FB, I had some recurring thoughts I've wanted to tell you but wasn't sure how receptive you would be. It has to do with how your artistic development is progressing. If you're open to some suggestions I'll share my thoughts here.
