@griffin thanks so much Griffin. I agree that the bear had too much prominence. I spent the last few days making adjustments on the piece, and last night I reduced the size of the bear and put him deeper into shadow. I’m still working on tweaks, and figure the next 2 weeks, I’ll keep looking for things to improve on it.
Here’s where I’m at now. 4CC46304-8E70-4325-AD8C-F9BE269A3047.jpeg
