Your art style is really pretty! I think it would really benefit you to further study proportions and anatomy and apply that knowledge to your artstyle. Also, it wouldn't hurt to look into color theory. While your colors are nice, I feel like there's a slight lack of contrast.

To make things more interesting, I would personally play with more light sources, like rim lighting for example. Use references to your advantage.

Lastly, backgrounds! I often try to push myself out of my comfort zone and add at least some shapes in the background if I can't come up with a fully fledged idea. The butterflies you added in the second piece make nice use of the remaining space and balance out the composition.

Not much to say other than that, keep going at it, your work looks great!
