Matthew 15 - Faith of a Canaanite Woman - Scene 03 - Help me!

I have been drawing 5 Bible Cartoon scenes that tell the story of the faith of the Canaanite woman, from Matthew chp 15. You can see from the two scenes above that I have used the same background from Scene 02 that I used in Scene 03, but in the latter I deliberately blurred the background scenery, to focus the viewer’s attention on the foreground figures of Jesus & the un-named Canaanite woman. This is the first cartoon in which I have used this technique of blurring the background. I think the technique helps the viewer… what do you think?
