Cardinal City

40"x32", mixed media

A map of Stanford University campus. It’s more just an illustration than a real map since the selection of buildings is very biased. In fact that was the point of the assignment I made this for and it just includes places frequented by my cohort in the Learning, Design & Technology program.

It’s done on a big tan paper panel with a Paper Mate Flair felt tip pen and then shaded with warm grey Prismacolor markers. The red is done with chalk and whites in a combination of chalk, gel and in a few places the Molotov acrylic pen. It took me about 150h to finish, probably a bit less.
