Very nice job, I like it!
I like that you added the leaf, adds something to the empty space. I also like how you added the light colors to the water, like sunlight or something. I also think maybe adding ripples in the water would add some movement to the fish, but it looks fine without it

this is a great realization of the original I like that you added the leaf
the only thing I'd mention is that the trasition of the water where the koi is swimming doesn't show that clearly. As it is it looks like the koi is not moving at all, it's also difficult to tell whether the koi is in the water or out of it (like floating ^^) Maybe you could add some ripples/tiny waves at the front
The shading of the water looks great. It's like you can see the sunlit ground

lots of thanks for your opinion and kind words , it's really apreciated, well, what you said about the transition between the fish and the water is one thing I had already realised about, when I started it I had the purpose of doing it, but I had to change the ground several times, and then I didn't do anything to change it because I have to hand it in in just two weeks and I have more works to finish, but thank you anyway, this is one detail that no one before realised about, or just they decided to not to tell me
(sorry for any strange expression or misspelling, I'm still learning hehe)

(no worries, I can understand you fine )

well, at first I didn't notice it. It was just while comparing the tho pictures that I realized that the water in your picture as no surface
maybe some highlight would do the trick? ... I don't know ^,^since it's an oil painting it is hard to do corrections with the time it needs to dry and all ..
but it's a beautiful work nontheless
