Adam's Sketchbook

think i am finished with this one. The problem is what to choose is the finished painting. I could (and have) polished this one more, but when i did i lost the feeling i like in it. I rendered out the grass more and the pillars and i did more detail on the wheels and stuff, but it didn't help, so i took it away. I like how it looks. It's hard to know what to do when you are trying to choose between technical level and what's actually good for the painting. What do you think? Do you think i'm giving excuses and this painting should be taken to a much higher level of polish, or do you think that it works as it is, and that the "lack of polish" actually is good for the painting?
