If you compare these two photos (click on it for a larger version) there are no radical differences but there are still quite a few changes. For starters, there are extra bits of rock -- the left has been extended top and bottom, the lower part of the right-hand rock has been widened, and I've added a few extra small rocks in the sand.
The color of the rock on the right-hand side has been worked up to have more happening in it, more like the rock on the left-hand side. It also incorporates colors from the sea, again to create a unity in the composition through color.
When I got to the stage where I was content with what I'd done, not convinced it was finished yet but unsure what exactly I could do next that would definitely be an improvement, I stopped painting. Is it entirely finished, the full potential achieved? I'm still not sure, but I've grown to like this as it is so it's staying like this.
