My Map Project

 

Stella Map Project 4

I would like to name that piece “NYC Sunset”


I created this piece of art by beginning with the backdrop. I really wanted to show want a NYC Sunset looked like so I painted a sunset and the water. Then using the map I cut out a skyline. Some of the things I learned while making the piece of work is how to transition between colors especially in watercolors. My favorite part of this piece is the sunset and the way I showed how things get farther by making the map darker the farther back they were. If I could change something about it, it would be the map cuts. I think when I cut the map I could have cut it in a more neat way. While making it I was surprised that I didn’t second guess myself. In some other projects I have taken a longer time because I second guessed myself this time I just stuck to the original plan.
