I LIKE that, it's maybe what they call abstract realism. By all means exhibit in shows. Be prepared for the comments. If you paint for the money and to what people will buy, there's not much of an adverse reaction. If you paint from your heart or soul or whatever, like you apparently do, it seems to elicit more of a reaction from viewers, positive we hope, but sometimes negative. DO NOT let it get you down if it's negative. You probably won't have to worry about that, though. I exhibited a painting in an art show in high school, which in retrospect I must admit I had no idea what I was thinking when I did it or what I was trying to prove, but it drew negative comments and laughs right off the bat. I jerked it down and went back and sat on the bus until time came to leave. On the other hand, any notice, good or bad, is not necessarily a bad thing in art. Keep after the art!
