There's a lot of little tweaks in this that I ended up committing to as I began work on trying to wrap this piece up. Some of the changes were due to my pickiness about composition and detail while others were more thematic.
It's always a bit uncomfortable creatively committing to a particular direction. The only way I deal with it is to leave the door open to a round of edits down the line. Sometimes I will pop back in on a piece months later and try out some idea that was bugging me, but I rarely ever end up switching to those changes. Even if it's uncomfortable, the earliest ideas are often the ones that hold up the longest.
