Im 16 and Im pretty certain that I want to be an artist for the rest of my life. I know Im a good drawer and all but I still realize theres room for improvement. I want to know if theres any way I can sell my artwork through the internet like a website. Also, I would like opinions, but nothing hateful please.
Yes, you show excellent promise. Websites have not particularly showed big results for selling art, but that may change. Creating an attractive website is probablly a very good idea.
There are a lot of different ways an artist makes money. Some of them are teaching (you need a master's degree for college, and a teaching certificate to teach K-12), public art, installation art, you can sell at art fairs and festivals, private teaching, and in many other ways. It has long been said about work that you should find what you love, because if you do that, you'll FIND a way to make money at it.

No idea how to sell ur artwork.
U're definitely a good drawer. But not yet there to be a professional (someone who makes a living doing it). U need to improve on ur coloring/painting skills. They r mostly sketches now. And u need more portfolio.

Wow your really good!;
But, as said before, not quite to pro yet. Instead of making just pencil sketches; Try to make a completed picture, coloured and everything :3
Then you could sell art prints via deviant art or any other website like that.
You could also charge for commissions too ^ ^

on no account fall in love including your artwork. sign it, date it, take a photograph of it if choose for be, then sell the portray, provide it away or burn it. The worst mistake is to stifle progression by means of falling in love with any unmarried piece. To be an artist is to maintain on with the approach (paint, paint and paint) and brush aside the product (pass directly to the subsequent and extra appropriate portray).
