Hey man! Awe inspiring amount of work in here! Tons of solid growth!
I though i would drop a bit of feedback as i'm seeing some problems in your fiished illustrations that are holding you back a bit.
your silhouettes and imagined forms are far too simple. i think you are currently in a stage where you don't want to draw what you don't understand, but that has the problem of having really weird smooth anatomical forms. And instead you are trying to compensate by adding tons of tiny contrasty detail to the internals of form, which i personally think are subtracting more from the painting than they add.
Like on this painting just breaking the tree's shillouette helps make it feel so much more natural.
TLDR: more shilloutte and form detail, less noodley detail.
Hope that helps!

Drawing out of perspective is like singing out of tune. I'll throw a shoe at you if you do it.
