Looking from Above

Detail (Looking from Above)
Acrylic on canvas. 12" x 12"
After seeing what happens when you go up the Tower of the Americas in San Antonio, Texas - this what I came up with, all forms of color coming together...

One afternoon I started to look at landscapes from a new prospective (literally form above). Then I discovered that you don't have to go up 24 stories above ground to see this, just go to Google earth and this is what you will see. Nealy the same image, shapes and forms of color that makes a very modern abstract landscape. What a view, this was my inspiration of doing a landscape from above.

Green is grass, black is tar from buildings, blues are pools of waters and all other colors are other forms of buildings that are seen from above. What an exploration to see from above.
