Before moving back out of Syracuse, I painted this cityscape montage of my longtime city's architecture, each with buildings/areas of personal significance to me in my lifetime there. It was a look back at the scenery and places that have left such strong, formative impressions on me from childhood until moving; from Syracuse University The Lord put me through without debt, to the clock tower of Crouse hospital, where my premature son was miraculously healed.
I was blessed to finish this in 22 days, and it went on display the same night I was moving; we left the opening show to drive 14 hours south with all our belongings to Charlotte, NC.
Below is the pencil underdrawing before painting the oil final.
