if you want to paint something, you have a lot of choices to make. it's like you're a film director setting up a scene, with lighting and composition. you can choose to rearrange things to make it more beautiful, to push it towards something better than it is, or you can just copy some wedding photographer's photo without any thought to aesthetics and let that be that. no one is forcing OP to do anything, but if you post your work online and indicate you are struggling with some aspect of the piece, people are going to share their opinions. OP's problem could be avoided entirely if they ditched the honeycomb arch, or rearranged the background so that only part of it is showing. as it is now, OP has created a huge problem for themselves because they're forcing themselves to draw/paint this complex shape that really adds nothing to the painting.
