Progress part 3

I still have a good bit of work to do on this but, I'm a little happier with it today. My husband really doesn't like the firefly in the center of the boy on the rights forehead and the boy on the lefts hand beneath the jar still isn't quite right. Fresh eyes tomorrow will probably help with that. I think once I have it done the firefly will work but, I may have to move it. I still have to add the background, work on the lighting and fine tune everything. Your comments and opinions are welcome and appreciated! Thank you for taking the time to visit and to post them.

    Karen, this is coming along really great, I love the boys' intent expressions and how you've rendered the glass! Regarding the firefly, I'm not sure if I would've noticed it before your husband mentioned it, but now that I look at the boy on the right, my eye does keep going to that firefly in front of his forehead. Maybe it could be off the the right of him and his eyes could be following it? It's so cool to see all your progress!

    Great take on the topic & as Susan says, their focused expressions are wonderful! I do think if you moved the firefly in front of the blue background, it would show off his luminous behind a little better! But a beautiful piece overall.

    I LOVE this! I'm liking that firefly there-- makes him and those beautiful brown eyes the focus of the piece.
