sketch variations

After teaching two classes, putting up the labels on the artwork for the Venn exhibit, and golfing yesterday, I spent some quality time in the studio last night. I worked on a couple variations of a sketch, and thought these constituted a good example of how somewhat subtle changes in compositional elements can result in quite a different "feel" for a composition. Here are three variations of the sketch from last night. I'm still not sure which I prefer; although I'm leaning toward the one with both the red curtain and the green "valance". I think it gives more "stability" (balance) to the overall composition, and gives it a theatrical look.
