Looking for critique on a finished(?) piece

Hi proko community!
I've been doing Tiffanie Mang-styled landscape thumbnails, and wondered if I could flesh them out into a full painting. I drew from reference, since i don't have the confidence/know-how/hubris to paint landscapes from imagination yet.
I must say, I probably should have strayed further than what the original image gave me (more color notes, bolder choices, less naturalism, etc. But i think the mustard yellow backdrop makes up for that... kinda. Also, there's a giant teddy bear, because... well, I don't know.
I'd love some critique that leads me on what to study, who to study (read: adopt as art parents) and why.
My (somewhat vague) goals are:
-Bolder, more exaggerated color choices
-Brushwork that is less traditional
-More Personality (whatever THAT means)
-Better shapes? (I think my shapes are fine, they get the job done, but i'm not sure of that yet
-The ability to understand and break down a landscape
