By itself, no.
Being that it's your first, it's okay.
A couple things I noticed:
I saw the image you used as reference, and while the colors are spot on, the illustration doesn't feel like it has much contrast. Even the background isn't doing a whole lot for you. I hate giving concrete advice but try making the background darker and less busy so that the person is the focus of the eye. The only thing that I see that feels remotely interesting to me, and I actually really like this part of your illustration...is the blue strip of your robe. It doesn't feel 'vector', which is harder to do and the odd part is that while comparing the original, it's pretty much the only thing (other than that background) that you weren't trying to copy verbatim, from real life - So it is one of the only things in this piece that came from your imagination.It's not a bad start, you have your base shapes worked out, but it doesn't look like you've gone very far with it. Or had much fun. :)
