Very good for the most part. I'd try practicing drawing your hand again but this time pay more attention to the angles in the hand. You've kind of down-played or softened the underlying bone structure of the hand... making it look rubbery.
A great exercise, if you want to, is to go on the internet and find a photograph of a skeletal hand. Then draw the flesh over it by looking at your own hand and comparing the two.
You've got your own style and that's great but if you can get a good handle on the human form, convincing fictional anime characters are even easier to draw.

I'm impressed, and agree with other comments (I find the imagination in anime interesting, but the form somewhat boring). Suggest do the hand again. Both the human body, and landscape, has "bones" - the underlying skeletal structure on which the land-form and muscles/skin are visibly supported. It's what results in the repeated surface forms we find attractive - like the phrases in music, which I think is the art nearest to painting. Draw from the inside out, not just the surface, and "feel" the inside as you draw. I'd suggest you try more drawing and painting from life, indoors and out. The more you look and observe something the more beautiful it becomes. Art is about the thing observed, not the observer (the focus of anime and much else modern "diagramatic art") but the more you immerse yourself in the thing observed the more uniquely personal your drawing becomes. Curiously, it's the artist's selectiveness of what to put into the drawing, the truth of the SELECTED line or tone, and what to leave out, that draws the person observing the art into "completing the picture" - which engages them in the work as a kind of co-creator. That's why, for instance the sketchy lines of a Marquet drawing, or Rodin's, or Giacometti's are so alive. Keep it up!

Well, I believe that people should live the way they want to live so I will not judge them about that. HOWEVER, I would never be involved in a love affair with someone I met over the internet. I could sit here and tell you that i'm 25 years old, blond hair, blue eyes make $958,000.00 per year, drive a BMW and have a beach house in Miami. But, that's not true, not even close. So, I guess I wouldn't trust someone for a love affair that I met online. What about you? What is your opinion?

The original pencil drawings are excellent. Great composition, shading and detail! Keep drawing!!!
I've sold minor works in oils, and have illustrated 2 children's books in watercolor and ink.
The anime, I'm not sure of. Did you actually draw the anime yourself, or did you work on a template? If you did them completely from scratch, then they are excellent! My daughter does both, works on originals and templates.
Regardless of what any of us think here, this is art. And you as the artist have to ask whether it does anything for you. If this is your dream...don't stop! You're very talented. And there are a ton of applications (anime, graphic design, game design etc) that can use your talents.

Why are you doubting yourself? The making art of any kind is not for others to judge. Yes, you can improve based on conventional standards, but you must know what you want to achieve. You alone can judge how close you are coming to that goal.

I think you draw well and the anime was good; a definate plus in a commerical sense. However the other ones (I missed the medium) were efemeral, beautiful and unique. Those images set you apart from the rest.

Art is created for the people, it's created for the soul.
