Kevin,

I think you've brought this piece way up with the addition of this shirt. Good judgement, good choice. With the addition of the strong colors into the shirt the background need not speak so strongly.

You're going to have to make some decisions as to where to stop this piece on the bottom. It looks like the hands may fall very close to the edge of the paper, which may cause some problems. May I suggest looking at something close to your cropped version as the finished piece?
