Color/saturation/hue: The sky looks fine, the hand is a bit pale and the skin tones do not seem quite right.
Lighting appears to come from a different direction than does the rest of the photograph.
I would like to see more of the hand and brush, and the house in the lower right serves only to distract. Or, alternatively you could have sacrificed a brush, put paint on it and let it dry in a bent position as if it really were applying paint to the sky; and then shot with a closer focus on the brush.
Nice concept, it has the bones of a very good surreal photo.
