After the crit session it was suggested I add more interest to the left side. With the road being so dark it left an empty spot there. So I played up the light of the shop on the left and reflected that down into the area. I also blurred out the tracks a little so the eye wouldn't race down so fast. Now it looks better. I sent an image of it to Jim Peterson of the Mockingbird Gallery and he really likes it. The other 24x24 I'm still working on. I did add a figure on the left side and painted her over about five times and still not 100% satisfied with it yet.
Sometimes paintings can really slow up on you as the problems arise.
