You certainly improved a lot and you seem to understood a lot of things too. But I hope you don't mind me giving you some feedback and maybe resources in order to improve further. I have struggled at the start to understand what makes a painting interesting so I began searching and I came across some useful information, it's all about design basics, check out a book : Design Basics by David A. Lauer . I find this book to be the fundamental for creating interest in a painting and a design in general. That's for start there are many things you should check out although you may have amazing ideas you have to learn to portrait them in an interesting way. Also I don't know why but I feel that your colors don't have a lot of value range, you should have more dark darks and and lighter whites, I hope this makes sense here is a small image to make you understand:



Hope this helped a bit. Try those studies yourself in a painting. I usually do them or try to decide my color range / value range before i start painting. So make a quick study to understand what do you want to achieve.
