‘anxious’ seems redundant here, as well as ‘girl’, finally, ‘involving’ works much better than ‘with’. I think this reads, sounds, and flows a lot better. Hope that helps. Sounds like a great story. You might want to play around with some other adjectives besides ‘talented’ to make your protagonist a little more interesting.
Sorry, I meant ‘artistic’.

Final revision. Sorry. Sometimes pulling back and getting a second pair of fresh eyeballs helps.
