Pretty cute so far. I like the trees, very simplistic!

Nice colors. Be extra clean with the lineart. Especially the treetops, k.

- Here, made an edit for you :P, I'd recommend fixing up the colors, and don't restrict yourself / limit yourself too much! saturation doesn't have to be too high or too low! -

Thank you for editing really helped me a lot.
I made a draft following his edition does not know if it was really good because I'm fast running out of time I hope you have been good sketch.

Before proceeding, I want you to see and want to know what you think I give a continuity of the waterfall into a river.

You could have the waterfall just land on another rock platform and make some sort of endless subtle loop animation of water in a sort of Escher-esque way ????

I made some edits before you see the comment from @ Jalonso and here they are:

1.0 - 1.1 :
I cleaned the lines and tried other colors.

2.O :
I started working on the rocks.

And here is the edition issued upon the edition of @ Jalonso:

Particularly I really loved the idea

What do you think? And what did you think about the waterfall being born a girl crying and random animations like the boat coming to post loads and boy practicing some kind of dance?

Waterfalls don't end up in rivers with the same size. They create some kind of reservoir much bigger than their size. I think you should make those waterfalls much smaller and make the lower area more like a round lake instead of 2 rivers mixing together.

Also the building on top have a strange shape. The roof is the part that bugs me most. It shouldn't look like that from that point of view.

Make your bottom platform large and have the ground indented slightly with a large pool of water. Put a boat rowing in circles in the lake/pool if you can. Also, when you start fleshing this out make certain to have some of the grass lap over the cliff/rock-base in blades.

The girl crying is cool; however, I'd move her platform directly abov the initial flow of water so it's actually plausible (as plausible as that concept can be anyway)

The world is but a shadow of emotion, cast in shades of grey.
