awesome composition and colors! The painting has a really nice feeling to it, fresh, it reminds me of a nice, warm day in spring.
as for improvements, i would suggest more hard edges. For example on her dress, just a few dark blue strokes to emphasize the folding more. Besides that, the lightening on the different objects is well done, but the overall lightening bothers me a bit. The shadows from the big objects like the forest or the wall should be bigger and darker, i think.

Okay, sunny, nice and quiet feel to it, but there are some things I'd like to point out.

There's no fall off anywhere, which makes the picture look rather flat. For instance, everything that's further away should be less in contrast, detail, saturation etc. The grass has much more detail than the trees, which could use more definiton.

The umbrella (or what it's called, I don't know) is probably a bit translucent, in which case some of its color would shine through. In any case, it's blocking out most of the sunlight, casting a shadow on her. Even if it would be very diffused, you would still see it. Her face is brighter than her right hand, which would be more affected by the bounced lights. Also, the sticks in the umbrella could use a bit more mass. I could be wrong, but I think the perspective is off. Also, her left hand isn't anatomically correct, so I advise you to get some reference on that. It also has a different perspective than the bridge. There would be more wrinkles near stress areas like where her arm bends.

The spattered pattern on the rocks may help make it nice and gritty, but at the top it lacks definition. Now it has no mass, like a fading 2 dimensional sheet of sand that gets blown away. The plants hanging over the rocks would cast a shadow, but now it kind of looks like they're behind the (dissolving) rocks. Also, there are grooves between the stones of the stone wall on the side, but not on the top. Is this supposed to be like that? Also, the bridge looks a bit 'wavy'. I think this is primarily caused by the top, which looks thinner and thicker and different places.

I hope you look into those things. It would be such a shame to leave it like this.

The waterfall could use some directional indications. Some line flowing in the direction that water would go would help. The foam could use some more spatters and the water would have more wrinkles there.

Also, overall composition would be better if you removed part of the left side and some of the bottom. I'd also move the waterfall a bit more to the left, but this would depend on how much you'd remove from the left side. You see, currently, there's nothing interesting in the focal points composition wise (trees and a piece of the umbrella and pieces of the wall). I assume you want her to be more of a focus. I think she would be if you moved her closer to a focal point.

Nice colors and composition, but I find the picture somewhat dull and monotonic. I would try to break the homogeneity of shadows everywhere, specially in the tree groves.
