Art direction for Aaron's world

Working on the styling for Aaron's world today. A few screen shots to show the progression of the art direction. I was using photo reference to paint the buildings, but it became far too heavy and there was a disconnect between the overworked painted effect on the buildings, compared to the simplicity of the bus and the tube stops. There would also be a big disconnect between Sally's world and Aarons. The movie clip shows the final style - almost neon in appearance.
