Kansas City Skyline at Convention Center Exit – 8″ x 10″ Watercolor
My friend Jim “Botee” Meyer supplied the photo reference for this painting. It was a little confusing, but I had so much fun doing it. I didn’t realize until later that the Sticky-up thingies with the wires coming from them is actually Bartle Hall, and it crosses the highway, too. Fun stuff!
