You could try and use where the light is coming from as for starters. In your picture is coming from the window and so it hits each element from the room differently
I found this image helpful https://www.deviantart.com/danield13/ar ... -258391508 and some kind of tutorial https://www.deviantart.com/thecoins/art ... -506341510
My take on color composition is that you should stick to a palette, let's say you want to use green with bright red. The contrast won't be very pleasing to the eye, so you can use a more pastel/darker green with a darker color of red, so you can stick to a range of colors. Also a more detailed tutorial if you want to try is here https://www.deviantart.com/singarl/art/ ... -527088227
Regardless, amazing art as always ! ♡♡ it's better than i could ever do qvq

    ohh my gosh thank you so much for the links!! after seeing the angry birds room one, i think that if i ever decide to finish this art piece, i would start from scratch and have the stained glass window be on only one side, so that the lighting would look better :"0
    again, thank you 💙

Ok so I've dealt with shading a high arching window like that recently. It's not the best, but maybe I could still give ya some tips ;v;
One thing to always keep in mind is that the light can be only as bright as the dark is dark. thAT may sound confusing so I'll try to explain X"D In order for your bright shading to really look bright, you also have to utilize your dark. There's this really great comic called SubZero that helped me to understand this. All the colors in it always look so vibrate and bright, and in order to do this there are also darker colors present. In this panel for example, a lot of her hair and skin especially is darker, but it's still a bright drawing, and the lighter tones are emphasized. (Here's two other examples: 1 & 2) I feel like most artists have some understanding of the balance between lights and darks, but seeing solid drawings that do it right has helped me a lot.
Excuse my rambling. I hope this is of some small help to you x'D
