The choice of color-especially for the foreground, is very appealing to me at least. I am not an artist so I cannot critique your technique or choices.
I do like it personally

I like your choice of simple subjects and serenity. It’s evocative of a deep appreciation for nature. Of the pleasure of seeing it, of being in it. There is an innocence there that’s incredibly appealing.

Your brushwork is what makes it really quite good. I look at other things rather than subject. The talent comes through in the wielding of the paint. Your did a good job on brushwork! Actually, it’s better than just good.

I like the simplicity of your work. And as someone already mention, nice brushwork. I like the loose quality of your paintings.
