I definitely felt like I got away from the theme at times, but I tried roping myself back in often enough to get myself back on track- but at the end of the day, if you're flowing and you have a certain direction, then that matters more than the theme. I don't think for a second you should ever remove what you've done because it doesn't fit the theme- but that doesn't mean that you shouldn't guide yourself in the right direction every once in a while! Additionally- something you have to consider, my interpretation of the theme is likely different from yours. If you read my post you'd see that I saw my daughter and my wife in that painting, which gave my music a certain element of emotion that no other piece had. I'm sure you saw something in the theme that you may have connected with, consciously or not, that makes your music uniquely you! Great job :) and you're welcome!!!
