Hmm i do like this piece, it shows that you have an idea of how to bring together a scene. So to critique in a general manner id have to start out with the foreground to background composition: It could use more background behind the waterfall in the sky, wheres the water coming from? lol i do that alot myself. I also think that the mountains and the grass could use more doodads meaning rocks maybe discoloration in different vegetation, just get funky with it and start slappping more shades of the color your working with, umm im still learning myself so please take my critique as a friendly suggestion that i would tell myself after looking at my own paintings. The picture isnt too exciting, forget composition, your colors of brown, green and blueish/grey for the water make the picture bland, your light values for the mountains seem, i see the high contrast between light and dark, but maybe its the grass/vegetation, two more things and im done, the haze feels like fog instead of haze, know what i mean!? and lastly just a little bit of reflection in the water would help, not a whole lot cause the water seems to be flowing pretty good, i would just add some browns and green in the appropriate places if you know what i mean!! Well i hope that helps, and i really do see your talent keep it up!!!! laterz

Dude.. This is by far the best critique i've ever gotten.. Thanks a lot.. When i think about it.. you're absolutely right. ^_^ I also know the reason why it looks like fog.. You're able to see a bit through it.. Further i should have used the same brush, but smaller. ^^

Oh, that's really pretty! I'd never have the patience to do that with the computer. I barely have enough patience for landscapes with watercolours.
I'm... not really good at critique and I only have one thing anyway, so I'll just put it here... I think that maybe the curve of the river should have started a bit earlier? My art teacher always says that a river or path or similar should have a sort of z like form to make it more interesting and I tend to agree with him on that. Though the fact that your river isn't perfectly even and straight does help.
And I so really like it. I rather adore the sketchy quality it has, and the way you drew the water.

Thanks alot.
I find working on the computer way faster than on an actual canvas.
Almost all of my drawings/paintings have a sketchy feel.. because i'm so bad at cleaning them up. ):

Admittedly, I've not tried landscapes on the computer that, maybe I should.
And I often prefer sketchiness because it seems to be more expressive.

Well.. I mostly do landscapes.. I should start doing more characters.. I see that you are much greater than me at drawing faces... And most of your drawings are way more clean than mine. xD I suck at cleaning my drawings up. D:
