Vertical Buildings

These two small paintings in progress are both finished pieces in their own right and studies for future paintings.

I am interested in the idea of perspective and using it at a street level looking up so as to give a sense of alienation. Figures will be distorted, and with one person on a separate perspective to add to the sense of disorientation. The paintings are also studies for future paintings in that I would love to produce them on a much larger scale, say a metre by 80 cm or bigger still and on copper or steel. In that way the perspective would have a greater effect and the metal would act as a ultra smooth surface for me to play with subtle textures on.
