Good to see you painting again, meshing your landscapes with your really strong anatomy skills is key- at least you've got some forward momentum here.
I know you work from life as much as possible but the verticality of the portrait makes her neck merge with her spine and skull in an inhuman way. I think either adding hair mass to the back of her dome or shifting her chin outward would help alleviate that issue. I find your noses tend to be too large, lips too bowed and eyes too small but there is no accounting for taste. Overall the brush strokes and color choices are well done. Keep it up and integrate all the elements.
