Fireworks In Night Sky

Did this piece lastnight. Haven't really worked with borders yet, so I wanted to leave this painting with an 'unfinished' feel with the white. What do you think?

too "unfinished" for me
I don't see the "unfinished" feel, I just see something unfinished, you have to paint that "unfinished" feel.
:D

Hi Ciarrai. I agree with axxxel on this one. Although I love how you've applied your colors, I too feel it's too unfinished. Bit too much white, which pulls the eyes sharply away from what I think (?) you wish to be the focal point, which is the fireworks. Love that shade of blue....

Want to thank you both for your comments.. This was only my first attempt at adding a border in, so I appreciate how you honestly told me what you think :)

Is this better, do you think?

A lot better my opinion compared on the first one...
The eye keeps around where the action and movement is...
I'm a fan of lines and harmonic but wild (?) movement so I really like it :D

Regards...

Yes. I love that bottom left (looking at)!!
