This version looks much better, but it still seems like the overlying
pen is very cartoonish (clear cut and defined, says Romy) while the
background image is semirealistic and stylized. We think that if you
can find the right look for the pen in that spot, then it'll still
balance, but it doesn't quite fit as is. Just my (our?) $0.02, though.
Take care,
John and Romy
