Auditioning Backgrounds

I cut the subject out from the background on this piece. The light colors were blending too much with the background fabric.

Spent too long on creating a new background before I decided the medium values  are blending now. And the intricacy of the background is competing with the foreground.

 

I think I am like this simpler darker background much better.
