Big Bearskin Lake and The Property - Commission
Hey all,
I did two maps, both 24" x 24", as a set that depict a fellow's property on their lake in northern Wisconsin, USA. Both maps are prints made by engraving/drypoint on a copper plate. The calligraphy was hand done after printing as well as the watercolor. I went big on this one and it was great! Learned a lot about engraving, drypoint, printing, and watercolor techniques. Finished copies can be viewed in my album.
Below I posted a number of WIP images. I'm done with the project already, but I thought I'd share anyway. If anybody has feedback on anything they'd like to see different I hope you share that anyway too. Unfortunately the maps were too large to scan; the pictures don't do it full justice.
Somewhere along the line I thought I preferred B&W, but the customer wanted color.
