It’s done :)
I’m adding the before picture too so you can see the difference if you’re interested.
Here’s what I wrote in The Art of Being You (@bodyvoice Vanessa’s FB group where the project hails from; she invited us to paint our HD charts) -

Quitting while I’m ahead. 🥳
Ever since the zoom ended on Wednesday(?), I’ve watched and wondered whether anything more would be added to this.
Then this morning I suddenly knew what color to use for the darkening of the background.
Et voilà, it was even already in my palette 🎨 … waiting 🤷🏻♀️
It’s a navy blue - I think I must’ve mixed it at some point ‘cause I don’t have it in any of the paint bottles (have been using liquid watercolor) 🤔
Spent maybe an hour with it.
Adding in the blue and also outlined the shapes in watercolor pencil then softened that with a damp brush (no additional paint).
I see things I could still pick and poke at.
However, as I know 💯 I’m prone to not knowing when enough is enough, I’m stopping. 😄
Just thought I’d share what happened next.
Oh - and I think, once it’s complete dry, I‘ll be rubbing on a waterproof/wax finish that I ordered last year but haven’t tried yet.
Should just enhance it, but we shall see 🤗
