Smile Opinions or Interpretations

I'd like to hear what some of you think I should do with this photo painting I started. I'm not completely satisfied and I could use some direction.

Thank You.

Welcome, Camelot:

Glad you found us.

The following are intended to give you something to think about and are based on personal preferences, so don't take them as "you gotta do it this way," OK?
* First impression... Too soft and blurry. I prefer more definition.
* While some like single color-type artwork and in some situations it's OK, I like multiple tones better.

My interpretation of your image goes in the extreme opposite direction: additional edge definition, more colors and a splash of texturing.

Anyway, food for thought.

Keep on playing and experimenting.

~Danny~

I'm sooooo happy that you answered Danny; I was hoping you would.

I definitely like what you did. You've given me some options and direction to work with.

Thank you,
