47. Prague With a Hint of Color

Prague With a Hint of Color was created with black fine tip pen and water colors. My inspiration for this piece was a photograph that I took in a park near my house. I like this view a lot and for me displayed Prague extremely well. I also was inspired by an artist Stephen Wiltshire who drew all of New York from his memory after seeing it in a 20 minute helicopter ride. I liked that it also was panoramic sort of piece and I liked it’s style, so I thought it would be interesting to try to paint something similar .
