Making a Christmas painting for my mom inspired by the below photo.
It is still very much a work in progress. I’ve decided I don’t like the tree in the background. I plan to paint over it and I’m looking for advice on what to put there instead that will balance the colors and composition.
Current ideas include a window with some kind of snow scene, or just make it a red wall, maybe with a vague wallpaper pattern.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions or feedback.
I like it. I would perhaps try adding a bit of depth, like opening up the wall of green in the background or adding a silhouette to the foreground (nothing too busy). Most importantly, don’t listen to advice too much because only you know your own style.
