CHARACTER
-Cute character and design. There is a nice spread of little details that add a lot of interest to the piece (the floral design on her legging I especially enjoy) and there is just enough where it isn't too invasive as to undermine the rest of the piece.

-The colors and shading are well done. My only critique about the shading would be that I think there might be a bit too much on her shirt / tunic. It looks somewhat baggy, although this might be intended.

-You anatomy looks mostly correct. A few little things.
--Her shoulders are fairly broad looking. The shoulder on the left (her right shoulder) is the perpetrator. It is too far out. This might be a perspective issue as well. If her body is slightly tilted that shoulder should be somewhat behind her.
--The ears can come up a little I feel.
--The arm on the right (her left, the one with the butterfly) is done well. A good job doing the foreshortening. Although, the hand feels off. I feel like that index finger is too small or narrow. Or perhaps the rest of the hand is too big?

LANDSCAPE
-The trees / shrubbery in the background are well done and add a lot of depth to the piece.

-Similarly, the grass is varied and detailed. It looks like a lot of work was put into it.

-I have two main issues with the landscape.
--First, there is a lot of empty space at the bottom of the piece. The grass just kind of becomes splotches of green and it kind of detracts from the very well done and detailed grass above it, which is a shame. I'd almost suggest just cropping a bit of the bottom off so you don't see as much of the less detailed part of the hill.
--Second, I'm going to be honest I'm not quite sure what the big green foliage at the top center of the piece is supposed to be. Is it a small tree behind her? It has the appearance of being out of focus, which suggests it is far away. Is it a big tree that that is being looked up at? But the perspective of the character suggests that we are looking relatively straight toward her, not looking up at her.
---I'd suggest having left this mysterious plant entity out of the picture. It would have been a stronger piece without it. It's hard for me to give advice on how to fix it because I'm not quite sure what you were going for.

I hope you find my thoughts helpful. Good luck with your studies.
