This is a painting a did quite a while ago, in fact quite a number of years, always bugged me the texture of the rocks and the foreground so with this new found energy going to revamp it, more moss to the surfaces and more effort to try capture the algae (pale bit). Any thoughts about it gladly welcomed as still a bit unsure about composition.
that's a classic portrait
my amateur sixpenn'orth would be that the green needles on the pine branch look less sharp, contrasting, richly coloured than the dead needles to the left of the cat (left as we look at at it) and the moss below it
so I would be thinking of juicing up that branch to bring it forward a bit, maybe also toning down the needles just to left of the cat, so they don't out compete the cat's face
