Color Design

Cityscape

Acrylic and paint markers on canvas

18 by 24"

For this piece, I knew I wanted to create something with lots of different shapes and something different than normal. This gave me the opportunity to create a cityscape with lots and lots of different colors and variety. The many different colors gave me the chance to create something with all different shades and tints. I started my work with a small sketch on canvas. I slowly started to choose where my colors went and started with my primary colors first and then my secondary and then tertiary colors last. Once I finished painting all of the different sections I took a black paint marker and outlines all of the painting except for the plain blue sky. I like the result of my artwork however, next time I would have rathered to have taken more time to get more precise and brighter colors.
