This is understood and was not questioned. I was referring to the simplistic nature of the BG. Not that it can't be simple but the shape themselves are dirty and unrefined, moreso because you did not AA them. The coloru hue/value of the entire BG is not on the same spectrum as the central figure therefore there is no unification. Liking or not was not even where I was going. It is always relative and subject to persaonal tastes. I only speak techniques. btw, Art does in fact often require explanation and even justification, all art does. It is a communication form.
Now you're expressing some culture I'm not aware of, I just thought an image justifies it self with it's presence, you either like it or you don't and everywhere in between, does an image really have to be obvious? Does it have to explain it self or be explained?
Anyway, I just thought it added something to the image, something good, not sure how to be more specific then that at the moment.
