Passing By, Watercolor Painting~ Is it finished?

Passing By ~ Original Watercolor 22 x 16″ $800

When I have a painting in progress, I try to keep it in my line of sight.  I paint in the studio, then bring it with me while I work around the house.  I bond with the painting.  Yet I still ‘miss’ things that could be better.

‘Passing By’  is from a photo taken the same morning as the Garden Gate, pictured below.   Same snow, different location, and totally different feelings.

So, does this painting look finished?  I am still thinking of making the sign on the upper right of the building lighter or darker, but any comments are welcome. 

(Passing By is for sale, framed for $800, but I’m going to enter it in the Art of the State competition, so it won’t be available until a later date.)
