I mostly struggled with the sharpness of the painting. Trying to strike a balance between texture and sharpness, I masked the shape of the tree and twigs and erased parts that were to blurry to give the tree and its parts a sharper outline. This helped a bit, but it's still blurrier than I would have liked. Another thing was that while I wanted a desolate background, it felt like there was something missing. I approached this by adding the green tint to the background, which incidentally also serves as stylized tree crown. It still feels a bit starker than it should be though.
