hi i found this picture thrue goldencritique-club and i thought id leave you some of my thoughts on your picture.

first of all i must say i really like the calm vibe and colors, reminds me of Studio ghibli style. i think you did rather well with the human angles and proportions and i like how you dident straight copy the reference image but addeded and tweeked things to suite your own picture

what i would recommend you think about for next time is to fade the black outlines even more on the parts that are under water and only keep the very hard dark outlines were this is a clear shadow, try to use colors on the other outlines.

give more rendering to the plant sense it is a pretty important pice of the picture and closer to the viewer, the swing wood board needs more framing/detailing OR the ropes need to be less detailed. right now thay are not very harmonius with ehother but thay should be

the top part of the background water should be more faded and blended, as it is now its kinda harsh and competes with the girl a bit sense you cant quite figure out what the GB is, it distracts.

all in all its a beautifull picture be proud of it
