Light on Gondola 2

10 x 14 in  -  25 x 36 cm     Watercolor    

This is my second attempt at this painting. The idea is to improve the composition. Compare this version with the earlier one. I have added back the boat on the right of the painting and removed the one on the left. Does this help place the gondolier in space or does it hinder the composition?

I have tried to get more of the light strip of light that runs down the center to show. The three level grey scale shows that it is almost showing.

Same ref, of course, as for the first version.
