I don't see something wrong with your picking hand.

As long as your movements comes from your wrist and elbow (not from your fingers only) it's ok imo. The one thing that's important is that you feel CONFORTABLE in the way you hold your pick. Confortable to play chords AND notes. You might want to test other ways to hold your pick (1 finger, 2 fingers for example) to really "test" the way you feel about it. Test it playing chords and notes. You might want to try different picks too.
Otherwise don't worry, you'll get more and more confortable as time goes by.

Just keep practicing man. As far as I could see there wasn't really anything wrong with your picking.

There's tons of potential there. Stick with it!

Tons of potential. Once you get more comfortable with the neck, it'll smooth right out. Good stuff.

Keep it up. Sounds nice, it has a bluesy feel to it too, which is good. Nice work.

That was cool. Your chords and arpeggiated chords were clean and it had a really cool groove to it. Keep it up man.
