Metropolis

Metropolis is a pen and ink drawing inspired by a photograph of high rise apartments in Hong Kong. I carefully analyzed this photograph and measured the position and angle of every object with a Keuffel and Esser divider. I then sketched each object with a .5mm mechanical Pentel pencil.  Once the design was complete, I drew the image using a Rapidograph .25 mm pen. The original drawing is 14"x17". I counted 66 floors in this apartment complex which appears to have 12 rows.

All prints are printed in the U.S. on archival quality acid-free paper. Limited edition prints are signed and numbered then shipped with archival-quality acid-free matting and backing board suitable to use for framing.
