I was building up another of these city abstractions when I started to realize that I was restraining myself a bit... There is this base that I keep building off of... a safe point. That element that feels like a city was always in place and its still in this one but as I worked my way across the page I started to realize that I could focus on the shapes and give up that basic city structure. Push the concept of the persepective and trying to create depth rather than having this basic formula to follow.
I think more and more this is heading towards a pure spacial experiment... Nothing but shapes, no buildings... Just a hint of them... thats all it really needs at this point. I think the abstraction itself becomes stronger the more I push away from this basic city structure. I still need to work on this one but I like some of what is happening. I like the spacial relationships. I like the way the colors are working with each other, I still need to work into it a bit more to give it a richer feeling but its definitely going in the right direction.
Point is, this image pushed the idea in a way I never foresaw and its pretty exciting.
