Looks a lot like Bear's work. Or something Bear did a while back...

Haha, whoa, wasn't accusing anything. And yeah, you picked good inspiration, if it truly was your inspiration.

It's ok, but I think the anti-aliasing is just... ugh.. terrible.

Some stuff shouldn't even be anti-aliased and they were. AA is a good thing, but you should use it only when you actually need it. For example, the curve at the right of the top status bar: no need for AA there.

Here's a quick edit. Notice the status bar circle, the house and the status bar.



Yeah. It's crap but works to make my point.

You're kinda doing AA in reverese, by the way. You're using dark colors where light colors should be, and vice-versa.

Other than the things mentioned here, I'd suggest adding some more things to the scene. Right now you have clouds, a flower, a house and a mailbox... It looks kinda empty to me.
Perhaps you could add some trees or other things.

the clouds were straight of Bear's image as well they were just mirrored in the middle. Honestly, I won't give any critique on this piece as it lacks originality. Try your own style instead of taking it directly or indirectly from Bear

the house (as bear said) is virtually the same as well as the flower, seems like nothing is really new here

Well, you could label where you got your inspiration from next time, then I'd see nothing wrong with it. If you're precise enough about it, as in "I took the cloud from BEar, mirrored it at the middle and modified it a little." Mabye with a link, too.
