There have been a few of these, understandably. This isn't the best but it's far way off the worst :) I think the voting (especially if it follows my own confusion) may be torn between the success of retaining softness in the flesh and the failure to produce a completely distinct graphic. It gets better when you look at it longer and that's never a good sign for votes :)

More sharpness in the eyes and maybe the lips would have helped.

Almost like a pencil drawing. Refelection in eye a bit distracting. The expanse of white from the eye to the edge of the image makes the face feel a little distorted. Changing the crop to exclude the tip of other eyebrow and the nostril away from the eye might make it stronger.

A beautiful eye. I just wish it were sharper...
