This is by far my favorite project of the year. I got to express my self through paint. I had the theme of nature and I really went with it. I love the colors I used and I feel like I really made it my own. With a name like Meadow, I really have always brought drawing or paintings of nature to my attention. It was kind of like a free painting experience. I loved making it and I loved how it turned out.

I am delighted about how my artwork turned out. The perspective that I wanted was conveyed. I love how the skyline was defined. You can’t see it very well in to photo, but the colors look great. This project took a lot of time and effort. I made a lot of mistakes along the way but I had to go with the flow. That is skill the artists must have. It was difficult coming up with the idea and then following through. If I were to re-do this project I would have chosen something easier. I had a hard time with this, but I am happy that I stuck with it because it looks great and I am proud of it.

My idea is to have an out line of the New York city skyline in color. How I am going to do this is cut out the skyline out of the map, then spray paint it on to black paper. The problem I ran into was, I wanted a clean map outline to put in front of it. So I had to make another outline with black paper and cut that one out too. After that I decided that After I spray paint it I would want to hang it up by string. Right now I am testing spray paint ideas. I am still making it and I think it is going very well. I want to add in other thing hanging from string like a moon or a sun.
