Like Anaiyu said, you can do a good job with faces. However, I encourage you to try some different expressions, or work more on bodies (bodies are people too!).

Moonblaze brings up a good point about color, but I'm not sure I'd worry about it for things like the chibi picture. I mean, if she's saying "omg freaks", super dramatic coloring won't fit. Try some drawings with colored light sources some time, though.

Lastly, I'm not a huge fan of your surreal stuff. The concept is nice; it's like an assortment of objects that, together, tell a story or convey an idea. However, it ends up looking like a senseless jumble; I'm not sure where my eye is supposed to go. In ones like kirsikkakuunvalo5722872.jpg, for example, try making the S-shaped thing (a tail or a palm tree?) the focal point of the picture, so it leads the viewer on a guided tour through the rest of it. You can also use this to control the order in which people "read" the picture.

I can see in the parrats eyes that it does however have a understanding of the gray bird man and is upset about getting cut."</i> - Speeza on cartoon birds.
