"Minneapolis Skyline, 2015," is 36x48," acrylic on canvas. This painting was a complete surprise to me. I had a side project going with a couple of largish abstracts that were inspired by these sample boards we have in our department break room. Here is the one that inspired this under-painting.
I didn't really know how these paintings would turn out, just messing around. Then my colleague said he was working on the art package for our Minneapolis regional office and he needed two large companion pieces for a big meeting room. The under-painting reminded me of reflections in office windows and it occurred to me I could overlay an abstracted skyline, building on the grid pattern. Here is the result. The next one will be of the St. Paul skyline, so both of the Twin Cities will be represented. :)
