Moonblaze, I agreed with you =P. You dont' need to explain to me that emptiness needs to be the focus or at least a major theme to contribute.
Anyway, you're quite talented and have a lot of potential to grow, keep that in mind. But if you want to bring a lot of life to your drawings, follow these simple steps!!
You could learn a lot by trying to draw things from very different angles. Right now, everything seems to be a bit head on, or from the side. I try to picture all the objects in a drawing as a 3d model, and visualize what it looks like from all possible angles. For instance :
On the right is a house. The angle is flat on, viewing the front, completly making the sides invisible. It's not that exciting. On the right though, the viewing angle is high above the ground looking down across the facade of the building. The impression of height is given off and immediatly looks better. See the difference? If you can apply that concept to other drawings, you could give off great ideas about size. Consider how awesome the drawing of the dragon would be, if you had the angle of the drawing from ground level, looking up at it. The viewer would feel daunted by it's size, therefore the fear aspect would be accentuated.
