Hello! You've asked for me to critique this artwork!

To start off, you don't have a bad start at what you're drawing. A matter of fact this is better than how I started. The colors don't clash too much like most novice artists so that's a good thing! Simple coloring is a good start.

Now onto what you can improve on.
This may seem like nothing but it actually is a lot to take in.
Like most growing artists, a lot of people actually look to improve anatomy, shading, colors, composition and technique (aka style)
Your priority should be the basics, which are anatomy, colors and shading. Understanding those factors can really help you. I can't really pinpoint much on this piece alone since there's not much to work with when it comes to a critique... BUT what I can do to help you is link you to my reference tag on my blog as well as another blog called Help You Draw which has many more references and tutorials than my reference tag.

The best part is me telling you this while you're still in your beginner phase. Do not focus too much on style as you can pick that up later. Good luck and I wish the best for you! (I'm sorry if this isn't really pointing at certain aspects of the artwork itself, but I feel that only addressing a few parts of this work in particular wouldn't be much help, all I can do to truly help is direct you in a totally different direction, if you understand what I'm getting at..!)
