I would like to name this piece of art “The Globe Of NYC”. I created this work of art by blowing up a balloon and then paper mache-ing around it with a map of NYC. Then I popped the balloon and painted over the map with mod-podge. Then I painted NYC on it. One thing I learned while creating it was that you need a thick coat of paper mache so that the shell will stay hard. If I could change something I would try to add more of the actual map, not just words on the map. While making this, I was surprised that heat could pop a balloon and I was halfway done with the paper mache, so I had to insert a new balloon into that shell and that’s why it looks lopsided.
