Gateway Arch Painted Image

This is the LONGEST post I have done yet. This was a picture that I created for the Gateway Arch. This was all digital involving both Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop. The long image shows how the image started and evolved to the final image which is shown below the long image. At first I wanted to do something that looked like a travel poster. During that process I worked up another version that was received better. Soon I was working on versions where the angle of the arch changed, colors changed, positioning of elements changed. It was truly a collaborative process. In the end it was used across several products. 

Purchase of the products can be found at the JNPA giftshop. One of the products using the final image can be purchased here Arch Skyline Ornament. Other products can be found through their online gift shop shop.jnpa.com. Puchases made help provide educational programming, exhibits and site improvements to JNPA partner locations.
