Tryout one. =)
Next time, I think I will draw character before the background.

watercolors and solids are hard, I recomend just using black watercolor on a high pressure in order to make them blend better with the rest of the colors, also, you should put some blacks in the rocks somewhere, else the rest of the objects look faded compared to the character. Her torso and legs look alittle too long, her knees should be visible. and pehaps zoom in when you're working on her face so you can smooth and fix all the details.

Other than that, I really like the composition of this, and the pose looks very natural, good luck on your next tryout ^^

I agree with Anne, the black lines seem to make the character stick out too much from the background and make her seem harsher. I think that the sky and the water are well done though C: I especially love the clouds

for your next tryout, I would like to see feet? XD
the water kind of conveniently cuts off part of the figure.

If you have some trouble incorporating a figure with a background, I would suggest thinking of an action for the character to do in an environment -before- you even start sketching, so you can plan out how they work together. It usually helps me think of ideas XD
whenever I don't think of an action first, it always looks kind of funky.

I would go with what anne suggested about the blacks, and also take it on another level and add in more contrast in your shading for all elements. (rocks, water, and figure). Good contrast between light and dark when incorporated with blending and shading can really add depth to a picture, especially when you have a background.
