Artist Statement: In this assignment we were asked to use a word that was given to us and make it into a creative drawing. I picked LA and chose to give it the feeling of a city because LA is a big, well known place. I used pencil for this drawing to keep it detailed and precise. i struggled a lot with layering the words because there wasn't enough horizontal space to have the full word in that size lettering. I did enjoy this project and would not mind doing something similar in the future.
