I have a strong propensity for tweaking. The more I tweak the darker things get. In this first piece, I tried to reign in that tendency and put in as little background as possible.

In this second version, I let myself get as dark as I wanted. I figure this is the best way to figure out what I like best. Do the two and then put them side by side and think about it.
The truth is that I like both. I like the stronger edges of the second one, but I like the delicacy of the first one. Which means I'll continue to work in a series where I can practice both approaches.
Double the fun!
Which do you prefer?
