Terrific treatment, David. Unconventional (perhaps), but definitely artistic ('musical'), strong. Toning down shirt folds might water down strength. My concern is with the hand, its form compromised by the dark, to where it doesn't read with enough integrity as a full, healthy hand. We have to 'perceptually assume' (in my view), in most cases not a good thing to ask from the eye/brain.
