Carolyn-

Hi. I thought I'd try something else and see what you think. It's a little rough but I think you can get the idea.

I softened the background and took it more to the blue side to give some distance. I then eliminated a couple of people that seemed to get in the way of a simpler composition. Then I changed the back of the sign to mimic the color of the rose in his lapel. I also exagerrated his right (our left) shoulder to get it to line up with the roof line. Oh yea, I also got rid of the chimney coming out of his head.

His left arm works for me in this set up. What do you think?
