Oh my gosh this is so pretty!!!
The perspective and the lighting is gorgeous!! Everything feels so warm <33
As for what I can see, the only thing really standing out is the shadows that are kind of a brown colour? Outside shadows are typically blue-ish, depending on the colour of the sky. In this case, they'd probably be a purple-blue?? Ish?
I was trying to make a quick thing to explain why it does that but I accidentally made a whole mini tutorial lmao oops here u go -> BasicLightingTut  

Thanks so much for including my esk by the way ;v;!  I really love how you drew him, my tall boi <3  Ehehe!! I love it so much!!

I love your sky!!!

It's hard to find things to improve... maybe make the shadows at the foreground a bit darker to give more depth?

(I just realised incandescaent gave the same advice but explained much better XD)

You could also desaturate a bit the colours from the ground to emphasize the colours from the sky.

the perspective on this is GOOOORGEOUS. it's stunning, I really love the direction your art is taking! <3

I think my only critique is to use more values to suggest more depth? because the perspective suggests a huge depth, and aside from the very left side, there's not a lot of contrast in the values! so if the values toward the "back" of the painting are contrasted with the values toward the "front," then the dramatic shadows on them make more sense AND we get a better idea of depth.

But honestly? I love this. <3

thank you so much! I used a tonnnn of the concepts I learned from a book about perspective I borrowed from my library, and it definitely makes things look better : D
