I’m just doing some touch-up on the background. I’m adding shading to the waffle Tree on the left. I also worked on some of the details on the tail on the right side of the picture.

Dialing it down a bit The trees in the background are muted a bit more.  I am going to work on toning the large waffle tree on the right over the next few days. The foreground has most of the bright red and white highlights muted with a brown tone.  Overall I am pleased with how…
