Really messing with it

I really messed this one up. I hated what I did with the face details so I threw it on the floor and let it sit there for a few hours. I then starting thinking of spirit and the imagery of birds. I created the birds on rice paper with pastel. I then blurred the pastel with mat medium. I added them to the faces. I still need to do some blending from the birds to the faces. Do you like the direction this is heading?

I can just see you throwing this on the floor! Is there any way you could make the faces emerge from behind the birds?

i really like the bird imagery, it ties in with some of your other projects.actually i think here they help bring the viewers eye back up into the picture- the heads were falling down( which i liked- the feeling of movement) before and i think my eye kind of settled at the bottom of the page. now the birds bring my eye full circle. i feel like the central focus is the head with the red dot
