Steven, your suggestion makes sense but waiting on the background is one of the things with which I wanted to experiment in this piece.

I have had problems with restating the background once the elements in the foreground were stated and had to be corrected. I have had to compromise with a less than translucent treatment of the background because corrections require opaque aggression.

Soooo....I says to myself, says I...what if I hold on and see how this goes in the middle and when I arrive at a reasonable conclusion I slosh the background AND restate the edges of the head at the same time. I am glad you said what you did 'cause I did have some levees I wasn't thinking about. I wiped them down.
