Final Collaged Paintings

• I made a final set of collaged paintings, 3 in each category of "Play", "Rules" and "Breaking the Rules". 
• I am overall very happy with these collages. I think each category reflects their own creative process but the common use of similar textures, colours and forms create a sense of continuity across all nine. 
• In the process of making these, however, I found it difficult to use the manifesto as a determinate set of rules - does this mean they do not fully reflect Arnheim's theories? 
• Personally I prefer the "Play" set of images. I think because they were made through a lot of testing and experimentation they have a sense of fluidity and playfulness to them that the others lack.
• The images made concerning "Rules" feel very rigid and definite in their structure.  

I would like to use the upcoming crit to conduct a survey, asking people which set of images they think have the most balanced compositions. I think this could help draw more interesting conclusions out of this research and resolve my curiosities on which works better - rules or creative intuition?
