Bach Brandenburg Concerto 1 Adagio

Samantha Long Song Sketches

The song I'm using is the Adagio from Bach's Brandenburgische Konzerto. I just decided to dive right in the paint, so here it is. I'm experimenting with more atmospheric effects, trying to use more soft edges than I'm used to. Basically it's a main lit figure followed by two dark hooded masses. As far as the background goes, I'm not really sure what I want to do with it yet. I may suggest a stone wall with overhanging trees or something; we'll see. I plan to tighten things up a bit, play with more lost-and-found's, and bring out my hooded's from the background slightly. Looking at it again, I'm sure about my composition. Does it need more space on the left and right? On the bottom? Does it get too dark overall?

FYI, here's my main reference I'm working from. I also have some for my cloak shapes. I may collect more for my wall and trees.
