I have to say I love your spawn
The zerg looks awfully flat, a reference would do it wonders and add some less saturated colours
In the tiki man painting the trees could use some more work, the green behind the trees looks like a solid wall, so add some objects in the distance.
Im no expert but I hope that helps, good start btw

Oh my god the otter is so cute! I'd say the otter and the onion are your strongest works here so far. Spawn is cool as well.
Most of your artwork is suffering from flatness though. Remember you are drawing a 3d object on a 2d surface. I'd suggest drawing/ painting objects from life to get a better sense of volume. Just find some interesting objects around your house and have at it. Keep it up!

Well I see skill and ambitions. I would say you have the full potential in becoming a great artist. And you have very good foundation to base you studies. I see mistakes , here and there , but your work is very good. I would say go for with full throttle . :anime:

I think that here applies the golden rule of life.
LEARN THINGS WITH STRUCTURE.
Our brain stores only the data that sees as useful, if it does not understand it or connect it with the available data it will discard it . So learning step by step will help you tremendously . Of course I am a noob at this but I will be surprised if the golden rule does not apply to art as well.

This is looking great!
Sweet flowers! I think they would jump out more if the green of the leaves and stalks wasn't so saturated.
The reflection of the otter isn't right. The head is too close to the surface, its food is gone, and it is seen from above, while it should've been seen from below (the virual viewer is below the surface, looking up at the otter).
