Hello, brought me here! Hope I can give you worthwhile advice from one artist to another - I'm in a cafe sipping coffee right now, so this piece will fit great with my current mood, hehe.
Anyway, I can tell instantly when looking at this that you've got a solid cartoony artistic style going. The character is clearly stylized while still being relatable, and something about the way you're shading everything - I guess that there isn't much diversity of light levels on any given layer, so the layers clearly look separated from one another - gives this drawing a distinct and nice feeling, almost like it's a scene from a pop-up book or a certain kind of modern cartoon.
I would suggest moving away from cross-hatching when drawing digitally unless you're going for a highly simplified, comic-book look - when it's combined with softer shading as you're using here, it just has the result of looking messy. Your anatomy is mostly there, but the girl's right arm is a little too short and neither of her arms is really expanding as it gets closer to the camera, as they should per the principle of foreshortening. I also like the background in general, especially your decision to blur the cup because it's out-of-focus, but I would suggest getting more practice with one-point and two-point perspective: the boards of the table are expanding as they're getting farther from the camera, when it should be the opposite.
What I like above anything else about this drawing, though, is the feeling of warmth exuded by the lighter colors on the left (from her side) part of her hair - especially how even the outlines on the left part of her body are better. Good luck and keep improving!

I think it's a relatively simple picture, this looks like this belongs in some sort of artistic commercial about city life and the few pleasantries that can be within it. It looks like she's just enjoying a nice cuppa Joe. While not perfect, not too sharp, it still manages to give you a relaxing atmosphere. Good job!

Thank you! I hope next time I'll be able to capture that "sharpness" that I've wanted to depict.

You may not have gotten the effect that you wanted, but it's still a nice picture! You have good color combinations, a nice and simple light source, and I especially like the steam effect the most. If you're looking for minor details, I think that the cup closest to us could be a little bigger, but overall the composition is good Γ² v Γ³ )b

The coloring is amazing!
The anatomy is amazing as well!
But it feels like the head isn't really connected to the body,Β
But other than that it's amazing! I've fell in love with this!Β
