I added a second layer to the painting. I hope I improved the color relationships and made the value structure more interesting.
@antmora Cool. Solomon Joseph Solomon is the man. Wow I don't even know how to glaze XD I can't wait to see the next layer of your mermaid painting. Though I would define her pose more as I can't tell if she's jumping into the air or kneeling on the rock. If you want a second opinion on the composition and drawing aspects of the painting, I can give a digital paintover later.
Also about your question, I'm trying to figure out how to distinguish the large shapes in my painting with varied texture. Like the smooth gradient of the sky, the waves of the river, the rough bricks of the building, etc, but I'm too new to painting to get such subtle effects I guess.
