Clarifying an Idea

This painting never really hit the mark that I was anticipating.  It has been around for a while in a state that was too subtle, therefore my concept was not coming through clearly. I have been aware of this, but I wasn't sure how to approach it again.  Fortunately, the solution came to me this week and I was able to push this canvas a bit further and clarify.

Here is a before and after.  The image on the left was made over a year ago. In a matter of one hour I made the necessary changes to create the image on the right. she needed more divinity and ascension.

this is now a much more accurate description of my orignal idea.
