one thing i would pay a bit more attention on is you cutting out. The arms look pretty hacked with bits missing and the fingers on the right arent cut out at all. Just needs a bit of practice though, weve all been there 
Goodluck.
Keiley is correct, and i very kind about mentioning it... i unfortunately am not so kind, so i will not say much else about your image. I do suggest taking a look around the net for some tutorials on proper masking and on some of the other tools it appears you used, such as liquify and smudge tools. Good Luck!
Thank you both for taking the time to comment. It is a very poor chop; but probably the most important lesson I learned in this exercise was to pick an image with good resolution to start with.

Forrest Gump love affair...
Forrest Gump: You know it's funny what a young man recollects? 'Cause I don't remember bein' born. I don't recall what I got for my first Christmas and I don't know when I went on my first outdoor picnic. But I do remember the first time I heard the sweetest voice in the wide world.
Forrest Gump: Me and Jenny goes together like peas and carrots.
Forrest Gump: Will you marry me?
[Jenny turns and looks at him]
Forrest Gump: I'd make a good husband, Jenny.
Jenny Curran: You would, Forrest.
Forrest Gump: ...But you won't marry me.
Jenny Curran: [sadly] ... You don't wanna marry me.
Forrest Gump: Why don't you love me, Jenny?
[Jenny says nothing]
Forrest Gump: I'm not a smart man... but I know what love is. (5 years and 2953 days ago)

I used blibs.com to edit the photo of the duck. The quote is an edited version of Michael Caine's quote "Be like a duck. Calm on the surface, but always paddling like the dickens underneath."

I think you've gone too far with the effects, the poor child looks like he has leprosy and you've lost the rich color of the flowers.
Removed the neutralizing filter (was going for that moody thing other people do, guess I missed the mark)
Intriguing concept. His reflection in the countertop is stronger than that of the vase, however. And his hand on the vase is disturbingly vampirish and weakly shadowed IMO.
