Your choice of mortar treatment of the brick was an excellent one (IMO). I used a similar one many years ago. Often a VERY light wash of white acrylic , removed quickly with a paper towel will age the bricks if you want that look. Instead of using the expensive artist's paints in a tube I use the small bottles of paint from places like Michael's or WallyMart for about $.75 a bottle (black, white, yellow, red, burnt umber and 2 or 3 others). If it were me , I'd tone down the foundation a bit by eliminating the black stones (perhaps in favor some dark grey) and putting a light grey wash over all of it.
