It is always beneficial to the artist when they go back and revisit a certain style they had. I took a look at your gallery and I definitely see hints from your previous works. However, you have stayed true to your bird theme and I really like how well you have intertwined both.
The drawing feels very soft and delicate despite all the detailed and thorough execution. The lace pattern gives a very elegant nuance that I feel compliments the ravens very well. I like how her dreamy expression, combined with the birds' movement suggest that her dark thoughts and burdens are flying away, leaving her in a light, blissful state.
The composition feels a bit unbalanced due to the high contrast between the ravens and the face. The birds correspond with the face colourwise really well, I like how the shading of the eye is the same nuances as the ravens. However, I feel like they are distant. The face fades away in contrast with the dark and vibrant birds. I would suggest making the shading of the face more intense, using similar nuances to the eye. Another thing you could consider doing instead is continuing drawing the big raven's tail. That way the centre of the drawing won't seem empty and the image will look more consistent.
Overall, I think this is a beautifully executed piece. I love the concept and the metaphor behind it. Nice work and I can't wait to see more of your work!

I think so many things about this drawing are awesome! I will say the one thing I noticed most was the lovely way the glow in the center of the raven transitioned into it's feathers.
