10 years ago I began this illustration, an aerial view of Los Angeles. I paid attention to every little house and detail, and added a bit here and there the following years...but I eventually just stopped, neighborhoods unfinished. Little did I know I’d end up living here a decade later. Life lesson: work on those tiny details in life but never forget the big picture! 🙌 ✈️ @ Los Angeles, California

Finally finished! Echo Park Lake, 9X12, acrylic. A lot of tiny details in this one which took forever...on to the next one! @ Echo Park Lake
