I really like the haziness of the whole drawing from the charcoal and I can see from your other work that you draw stranger stuff as well. In comparison, this is a little less surreal but I think that if you add a touch of surrealism it would improve. It also feels a little similar to other landscape art that I have seen and it's somewhat Bob Ross-esque, but the general mood is much more melancholy thanks to the use of charcoal instead of brightly coloured paints, which I find good in a picture. I like the washed-out mountain in the background which gives the drawing a sense of mystery and gives a sharp contrast with the darker trees in the foreground.

Overall, this is a nice drawing, and to improve try and make it seem more strange and surreal, but keep the hauntingness of the dark pastels and charcoal.
