Thanks for the fave Keep practicing. One piece of advice for you. When you're painting, try to simplify everything down into big shapes, and start paintings with large strokes, rather than a bunch of tiny little strokes.

I know, I am trying, but I suck. Thanks for reminding me...
My strokes are all wrong, I am used to more transparent brush because I suck and can't do it right all at once, but paint one place repeatedly with transparent brushes. My practice routine is garbage and I don't have real plans, even I have, I lack the mental capacity to follow them through. I lack concentration and can't analyzed any picture. My fingers are constantly numb (which need further examination, I guess there's something wrong with my elbow). I lack any kind of creativity. And my practices are so bad that they scream "there's tons of things go wrong". They are really annoying to whomever unfortunate enough to see them.
And I often overreact and not very good at taking advise...
Don't take those babbling above too seriously, please. I have to let some random negative thoughts out, or I will be feeling down for months.
Thanks, mate. You're very kind and your works are good.
