I would use darker hues to color the backgrounds. The bright colors are really unnatural looking. You should keep the perspective you use and apply it to every object in your work. This includes the door knobs on those bright brown doors. It doesn't make sense to have flat doorknobs on a picture with three dimensional perspective. Think of your drawings as sculptures when you work on them. In real life a doorknob is a sphere sticking off of the door on a cylinder. So draw it that way. Once you make your images more complex you would add shading to them of course. Once you start adding these extra details people will really be able to criticize your work better. Feel free to add some more objects to the pictures while you're at it. Maybe some dressers with vases on them in the hall way one.

Check out the concept of vanishing points for your perspective. It isn't something you just guess about and make look right.

hey KD, are you using 3 point perspective?

you're getting the hang of it but your scenese are so large. try doing a rooftop. add lots of elements to it and maintain the correct angles. this is good practice
