This is the custom painting I created for the 2020 Laugh for the Cure event. It shows the beautiful Charlotte Skyline with the buildings lit Komen Pink. The fireworks exploding into the night sky are Komen Pink as well. The original fine art piece is 30 x 20 inches painted with acrylic paint on canvas. The painting goes around the edge and is ready to hang, no frame needed.
I started with a pencil drawing on canvas.
Next I traced the pencil with ink to create the dark values.
This is step one of the painting process. The paint is very transparent allowing the underlying drawing to show. The light green in the lower part of the sky is the smoke from the fireworks.
Step 2 shows more detail in color with the fireworks begun and the lights from the buildings shooting up into the sky.
The last step shows the banner hanging on a lamp post with the Susan G. Komen logo and typography. My signature is in the lower right.
