What I usually do for my own shots is try to look at them as an outsider and I'm pretty harsh on myself so don't think I'm picking on you. I'll give your shots the same treatment as I do my own:

For me, something is missing from these. They are pretty but there is not much emotion coming through. The original painting you showed, there was an emotion that came from the woman depicted. It doesn't have to be extreme, in fact I prefer subtle, but it has to be there. That's the hardest part in taking a portrait for good to great, is capturing not just a picture but a feeling.

I find when I shoot, I can have all the pieces in place, lighting, makeup, background, beautiful model and still something just doesn't click, and other times little things can be wrong technically but I end up with amazing shots.

That being said, nice first try. Keep on practicing and pushing it pas your comfort zone and you'll start seeing shots that really make you go "wow"!
