Home Concentration 8

I wanted to take a break from incorporating characters into my pieces, so this piece is solely focused on the architecture in Whoville. I really like the style of the architecture, but it was a pain to draw due to all of the different shapes. To try and make the process a bit easier, I made a grid for myself to sketch in. I'm actually quite happy with how the piece turned out despite the fact that it was a bit of a struggle to draw and paint. 

I accidentally used a gloss white acrylic instead of my normal matte acrylic (which was used to mix every color in the piece), so the end product ended up being really shiny from some angles. At first when I realized I had used the wrong paint, I was discouraged. But I had already painted a rather large section with a color I liked, so I continued to use the gloss white with the rest of the piece. In the end, I liked that the gloss white was less opaque and it was a happy accident that I grabbed the wrong paint.
