Messiness almost always hold magic! I like both versions of the painting, though the first one is more raw, and for that reason more powerful.

Thank you for your thoughts! I was so struck by this one that I went back and re-worked the over-finished version to bring it back to the more expressive (to me) version. Such a lesson for me!
