Neighborhood Map (PLG)
This map was born out of our move to a new neighborhood in Brooklyn. It's really more of a "new and improved" version of my Ditmas Park map.
In making this map, I decided to go the route of painting this time however. I had a good time using acrylic paint when doing the Dueling Paintings with Whitney in the spring, so that I decided to pick that technique to make the new map.
I also wanted to distort the map, so as to give the area immediately surrounding our home more space (and weight). In my mind, this central and most important area of the map would look like a "bubble".
Things I learned: Use a sturdier paper stock or even wood to work on next time!
