Threshold revisted

A painting can be perfect in a particular situation and fail in another. I had a painting that would absolutely sing in a dark red room. Unfortunately, i don't have a dark red room, and while i know it would look great in that situation, it looked a bit heavy on white walls. The gallery situation of white walls is unfortunately the standard, and most people have light colored walls. so it goes...
So i decided to revisit this painting and make it more 'white wall pleasant'. Now it might go even better on a dark red wall ; )
