Description
DETROIT, Michigan. Motor City & glorious Gallery of Beaux Arts architecture & City Beautiful planning in the early twentieth century, vacant & derelict in the late twentieth century, gearing up for a Renaissance in the twenty-first century. The city's architectural stock may be a shadow of its former glory now, but its plan still recalls designers' classicism in its downtown core as well as endless gridiron blocks fuelled by the auto industry's growth. With the Detroit River & Belle Isle along the bottom of the map & a bit of Windsor, Canada, Detroit is gorgeous in watercolor blocks. This is a PRINT. My hand-drawn map lines are turned white over my "Urban Fabric" painting, "GRASS" - a layering of many hand-painted & drawn marks in watercolor, handmade pigment & graphite. Wispy strokes evoke blades of grass, with pink & gold interwoven. The "Urban Fabrics" Print Collection features 30+ Cities in 6 Color ways, featuring my paintings: ROCK, COAL, RIVER, WAVES, GRASS & EARTH. Prints available in multiple sizes: 8" x 10" 11" x 14" 12" x 15" 15" x 18" 16" x 20" (shown in photos) 17" x 20" Prints also available in three paper options: Matte Coated Archival - Easily fits into frame of same dimensions, no mat needed.
