I am new to this site. I am trying to do pastel art piece of a niece's baby. I really need some honest feedback on what I have done. My son says it looks flat, no dimension. I thought I was finished with it but his comments make me not want to let my niece see it. Any suggestions/comments would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Thank you Corydulos for responding to my post.
So, is it that I need more shading on and around the face?
I have looked at this so much, even putting it away and coming back several weeks later, but I seem to be at a lose as to what to do.

Thank you so much for the feedback. I am currently working on trying to bring depth into face area. I am a 'learn on your own' artist so sometimes things do not as easy for me. I will post an updated photo when I finish the corrections. I really appreciate all the feedback. It is a help.
