This image titled Oklahoma City From the Bridge was from an early discovery ride with Sylvia after we moved to town. The city skyline came into view and within a few hundred feet I had the car stopped to take it in. I loved how the color of the Classen Building (Devon Energy Center) mimicked the colors of the sky, and the foreground was the earth (or at least it's color).

 

I use the iPhone image of the OKC skyline as a study "go by" before making the art. I moved the media into ink applied to aluminum through ink fusion.

 

This is a 20x24 ink fusion. Good look for your wall behind your desk! I had a very boring wall in my new place. This really changed everything! The minute I walk into the room a smile hits me!
