Overall, I think this is a very nice piece. I love the vibrant colors and girls expression. The shading on the pineapple and cherries is very detailed and pleasing to the eye, however, the background looks very sloppily done in comparison. The girls pose seems very stiff and unnatural to me. You should look up some references or take a picture of yourself if you need to; but the shading on her hair and eyes are very lovely.

The shading on her neck looks too harsh when compared to the shading on the rest of her body, especially on her legs, which have very soft shading. Her shirt is floating a little high, unless she just jumped into the pineapple, but based on the rest of the picture, that's not the case. Water does cause clothes to bloat, but typically not that much. Also, the shading on the skin and clothes is very similar. You should work on painting clothes because the fabric doesn't look like fabric, it just looks like oddly colored skin.

I do love how you shaded the water, it's very nicely executed. Personally, I can't depict things underwater, but you did a good job!

What a great mix of colors! The fruits are very well drawn and the composition of this pic is well chosen. An original deviation that will surely catch people's attention.

If I may begin with the things I think you could improve in your future posts ^^

In my opinion, the girl should be in a comfortable and relaxing pose due to the "exotic vibes" the fruits give, but her arms are actually in a quite uncomfortable position, instead she could put her hands on the pineapple and she would be in a much more comfortable position. In the future, for sitting pose or sophisticated gestures, you can take pictures of yourself in the same angle and pose, or look up on the internet for the ideal posture.

Another thing is that the t-shirt under the water would in reality not stretch as luch as drawn here. Under water our clothes puffes up, here your top is too stretched and makes it seem like a dress. The top should lift up just a little over the belly button.

The nose: You draw great eyes and mouths, and noses in general (from my point of view after checking your newest deviations) but unfortunately, the nose here is a bit too flat, not that we cannot draw flat noses but here to draw the nose, the line it too straight and doesn't compliment well with the big eyes and mouth.
Lastly, the expression is nice and those witty eyes makes us really want to go and have fun with her. (sounds creepy xD)
But the chin's shadowing is a bit overdone and gives the face a dirty look. Instead of using violet/mauve to shadow, you could use warmer tones, such as pink or orange.
I think you have great talents and hope that my critique will help you improve a little in the future.
