I agree

Simply put, I think your wrist (or hand ) is ahead of your mind. The figures and even the skin tones are really pretty good (and that's the hard part) so be encouraged the easy part is all that remains. Study design and paint from life and learn from nature. Using photos is best done after learning from life.

You are not alone, there are lots of paintings in magazines I would and do say this about. People will even buy your work, but if your goal is for artists to be excited about it, study edges and values and design.
