Hey Riley! Welcome!
Your Alice in Wonderland piece grabbed my attention. I like the composition, the character design and clear storetelling.
I think your piece can go easily to the next level and become a quite strong piece to put on your portfolio, and if you´re like me it takes forever to finish a folio piece.
I find some things that i will not delve in, just mention; 1- Her face should be more on a 3/4 angle, it´s almost a mixture of profile and 3/4. 2- Maybe a bit more space (ground or sky) so the comp. may breathe 3- The colours are popping each one for attention, that´s not the colours fault but the value build that´s still missing some elements.
Now, on the value, hope you don´t mind my paintover, just my two cents. All notes i left within the image posted.

In essence, values in a nutshell; 1- Consistent midtones, shadow areas and light, then when those three are detected, everything else will start building. 2- Lost edges and muddy value when attention is not required, grag attention with value where you want it (i.e. Alice and the piper)
PS; This image of your has solid values; https://cdna.artstation.com/p/assets/ima...1536599874
I sense a strong artist in the making haha.
Cheers!
