Description After long consideration I realized I have not been doing as much as I could on Deviant Art, so it's time to put in more effort. That's why in the month of June, I will try to submit at least 3 pieces a week.

What I came up with is drawing something based on the holiday of that specific day (because apparently every day is a holiday, or is dedicated to something. Yesterday was hot air balloon day.)

Today, apparently, is Yo-Yo Day! Today's sketch was based of that.   

The 6th June also is:
-Drive in Movie Day
-Russian Language Day
-Applesauce Cake Day
-Gardening Exercise Day
-Trails Day

(Also, is this sketch style a bit too messy maybe? Or not particularly? You don't have to answer, but I would appreciate any thoughts on it, so I can improve in the future.)

Oh and by the way, would you mind notifying me when your commissions open? I might be interested.

Alright! I will! >.< I need to figure out prices though, so if you could suggest a good price for different art pieces (e.g head-shot, full-body, sketch, etc. I would appreciate that too.) Thank you again for all your advice, it will really help me progress.

No problem! 
Usually when you don't have many watchers, its best to start with prices under 500 points. Gradually as you get more watchers, it gets easier too charge more ^^
I would say maybe something like this: 
Sketch - 50 points
Flatcolor/colored sketch - 150 points
Fullbody - 300-400 points
Headshot - 150 points
Halfbody? - 200-300 points

I posted some prices for commissions. Would you have a look at them, and say if their rational enough. I'm only worried about the line art being overpriced, but it is very time consuming to draw it for me, at least at this stage. Maybe it would be better not to offer it at all for now, since it takes a lot of time? A

And Thank you very much for all your help today. You don't know how useful all this is for me! I really appreciate it.

Oh sorry, meant to make this all one comment xD

Anyways, it almost looks like she is forcing a snake, and isn't really in a good mood. Possibly try experimenting with the eyes and eyebrows.

Your anatomy is pretty good, although the back legs look a litttttle bit short, even for the angle they are at.

The only other thing that I noticed was that the hair looks a bit un-natural. It doesn't even seem to be naturally affecting by gravity, and personally I thing it is un-usually smooth, but some people like that style more than others.

And I think that's all! It's looks awesome, and I love uyour more pastel style ^^

Thank you very much! That's really helpful! I do need to figure out the hair flow, so I will work on that as much as I can. 

Oh and as for the anatomy, I am working on it too, and I practice with real photos to better understand the motion and anatomy in complex actions or positions.

Wow, where to start!
This is really great xD
I love the overall structure, there are no major problems, and the picture all flows nicely together ^^
There are a few small things I noticed, the main on being the expression. I would assume you were going for happy or excited, but I think it ended up looking a bit more...
