Dana, nice work with the collage. I really like the feel of the colors. The elements in there also seem to be working well together. The one that you could think about more is the girl. Maybe it is the size or placement, but she doesn't feel as integrated as the rest--just a bit off. Maybe it's the color. In any case, you might be able to make adjustments there. As you do so, is there a way of maybe linking the changes with the santo image at the top? Somehow making it a vision, a girl looking up? Not sure, but it might be that there is a bit more integration that could happen there as well. Nice work.
