fat beat factory

Fat Beat Factory 48"x48" acrylic and tape on canvas over panel

so mostly i wanna know two things...1) i left the chairs incomplete. what do you think? 2) what do you really think about the lack of perspective? i find perspective real boring and tedious and plus i like the dizzying feeling of the rooms w/out it so i don't use it. but do the paintings suffer? would these be better in perspective?
any other feedback always appreciated!!

the floor didn't photograph too well...i first used a bronze iridescent and then splashed blue and red paint on with a toothbrush and then put a fat glaze with a little interference blue on top of that...it's hard to see in the photo.

k
love the title and concept,

if i were to leave the chairs un patterned i would make the front chair frames just as white as the back ones are. so it creates a more identifiable pattern in the piece, ya know what i mean?
i like your perspective, its very illuminated manuscripty.
they just stacked stuff on top of each other to make it look further. which you do, also in japanese perspective the higher the further, which you also do.
im into it. because it feels like an interesting space in your imagination even more than if it were photographically correct.

cool thanks for the comments...
i know exactly what you mean and i had it like that for awhile but it was just such a giant splotch of white and it just bothered me...it was like...1/8 of a 4x4 painting was a white back of a chair...so i made it grayer along with the other one and then made the three other ones white. do you think i should make the three more in the back that gray?

i would slightly pattern the white so its not so stark like you did with the venetian blinds piece or sumthn'
hmmmmm...
tough choices
somehow make them all a beat,
your call

i would make the ones in the back gray like the ones in the front, but that's just me. i find the white very distracting. i love how the wires move your eye around. the perspective works for me.
