With regarding to your Landscape/ Scenery paintings- I think your Mid-ground and Background values are too close together, as a result , the whole thing looks flat;
Do you give enough thought to what the focal point of the painting should be?
What do you want the viewer to look at?
Your shapes and Values are often too muddy, make things in the mid-ground/ Your focal-point sharper than in the rest of the painting
Add more contrasting Values to your focal-points
Some of your stuff is really well made!
But you often seem to rush in into painting in Value and colors,
I recommend you spend more time in the line-art stage and make sure your proportions and construction is done correctly.
Overall, IMO your fundies are a bit shaky;
Practice your construction- Drawabox.com
Watch some classes and tuts on composition , www.ctrlpaint.com is a great place to start
