Thanks for your kind words ReNae. Its funny, when I look at the close-up pic, I like this painting. When I look at the whole thing I don't. My fix would be to slide that shed over to the left. It would then also help to point the viewer at the child's face. The dark fence behind her highlight side would help it pop out even more.
Ahhh, isn't hindsight always so crystal clear? Live and learn. Just don't make the same mistakes too many times in a row.
