Good day; thank you for the course.
Looking for a critique or suggestion about the block-in for this image from the Olivia packet, #6.
Thanks again.

The head looks solid, but when you cover the neck with your thumb, the head looks proportional to the shoulders...and when you cover the head with your hand, the neck looks like it would support a larger head...this exercise tells me that the neck could be trimmed a bit, since you've already decided to tone down the contrast...

Asked for help
Version 2.0. Tweaked the perspective and composition a bit.
Is it looking too "busy" now?
Doesn't look too busy, bit something else to consider. The picnic table, apron, burger master's arm, and lounging figure all point to the middle left of the image, where the trees are...The fact that the trees are highlighted and also pointing in this same direction (kind of a 45 degree slant, rt to left)...all this serves to draw your eye right off the page, where the trees are...maybe toning down the lights on the distant trees, or counterbalancing the vectors which all point this same direction (by strengthening the perpendicular vector along front of the grill, or maybe even opening the grill)...this may serve to keep your eye in the painting...
