I want to improve as an artist, so I'd like to get some feedback on these pastel illustration I did recently. What do you like? What don't you like? Thanks!

Hmmm... I guess for art that is simple, it's pretty good. You could probably have shadings on the forehead because of the hair.

Also, what's up? xP

I love your color choices. Shading on some parts (like mask on the first drawing) seems a little flat to me, but that's it.

very lovely! I like them very much, but just because you are asking for area of improvement: the hands are a bit strange in the second one. all the fingers have the same size, which I don't really know if it is your style, but the thumb is very awkward and one hand is bigger than the other. I like that the character has big hands but one has a tiny wrist and the other has a thick one. And maybe the "text Angel pastel hell" can be improved a little. Maybe you don't want the text to stand out and interrupt the drawing but the text can ad some personality to the style. You can use a bolder font and make the letters green. If this is the name of the comic, then you can definitely play a little more with the fonts.
Overall it is very pretty to look at.

I think a little more contrast in your shading would look nice in your style! Also, you might consider adding some highlights to show depth. Basically, you should bring out your values a lot more and exaggerate the lighting. Here's what I mean:

all i did was darken the values a little more and add some highlights. (sorry it looks kinda rushed) Other than that, your art looks really cool

Thanks so much for all of the feedback! I'll definitely try out some of those things!

Thanks so much! I really like what you said about the lighting! I'm definitely going to try to play more with light and contrast levels
