BA1a Insect in Environment

I started off by sketching out the basic composition I wanted to achieve with this piece. My horse sized insect sprinting into the foreground.
After I started adding colour to this piece I quickly realised I wasn't achieving the look I was going for. Though in hindsight I probably should have stuck with this piece.
This is where the problems started, after painting a reasonably successful background I started painting an awful mess of an insect atop it. I'd have thought working into it would have made it better, but it only got worse.
This piece could have been so much better if I had continued with the previous composition. Though I feel it does accurately represent my insect, there is no depth or emotion in this painting.
