Rules for comments:
Remember the person. We are people from all over the world, of many ages, languages, cultures, and educational backgrounds who all want to improve our art. Sometimes miscommunication happens, just be cool.
Give constructive feedback, including examples of what works or doesn’t work. “I like the use of color” or “the legs are too short” are much more helpful than “I like it” or “I don’t like it.”
Be civil. Jokes at another person’s expense, personal attacks, flaming, derailing threads, name-calling, trolling, and generally being an asshole will get you banned.
Rules for posting:
Include images. Include your own work if you have a specific question so that you get clear feedback. Include reference images if used.
Group multiple drawings into one post. Multiple posts made in a short time period will be removed as spam. Post multiple images as a gallery or as multiple links in one text post.
Keep it on-topic. Extremely long personal posts, questions requiring medical expertise, or anything that cannot be reasonably addressed by art learners about making art will be removed.
Unhelpful tutorials will be removed. This includes videos and pages lacking clear instruction, speedpaints, timelapses, and anything with significant amounts of misinformation.
Spam will be removed, including posts of the same art content across many subreddits without a reasonable attempt at engaging with the /r/learnart community.

Second Finished Digital Piece Opinions
This is my third attempt at making the transition to digital art. Getting clean lines on paper is already something I struggle with so when I swapped to digital I was not having a good time. This is my second finished piece. It was actually really easy for me to make my style transition as a lot of my inspiration are digital artists. Here it is.
I really struggled with contrast in the lighting. The background color sucks too.

Landscapes
I mainly draw landscapes and this is the first one I’ve colored. I’m pretty sure I did the shading and depth wrong though.
Is there any advice someone can give me to improve?

Any tips specifically on coloring
I don’t know how to improve at coloring. Inking and penciling I have logical ways to practice, but painting colors has me at a loss.
I know my human figure isn’t perfect, but I’m not focusing on line art at the moment.

2nd original art - Looking for feedback
Earlier this month I posted my first original art, where I didn't copy an existing artwork but used several references for posture, outfits, face, etc...
Here's my second one using the same process.
Looking for feedback to improve. Thanks in advance.
