@Andy-Meeker This is a lovely piece. The colours are perfect and I love the new cut cactus to add more perspective. there is one slight change I think may add to this. I hope you don't mind me saying. The girl with her hand over the boat - her has is a bit of a tangent, if it was out slightly and dragging the sand, as if it was water, with wake behind it. Just a thought. Awesome work.
Just realized another solution might be to remove the candles altogether, and give everyone lit pumpkins, light coming up from a pumpkin would be like a flashlight under their faces, the creepiest kind of light. Just a thought...
