Had my second shot at the shoe painting today. Spot the difference, if you can! The amendments are pretty subtle: certain details have been edited out in an attempt to focus more on mass than mark-making; areas darkened; tones modulated; and the background fleshed out etc. It's far from perfect, but the revision process has taught me a lot and I'm quite pleased with the results. Though I managed to ruin/overwork the vase I think the shoe-moulds have gained something, and that the overall composition is more unified. I'll try to be more gusto next time - perhaps I was a bit tentative today. All in all though, a learning curve.
