“XXX”

Inspired by the year anniversary of my trip to Amsterdam in 2017, I wanted to something to remember the best week ever. This city is my favorite! I wanted to make a collage of some of my activities from a unique perspective. Symbols include:

• “XXX” on the lamppost, the flag of the city

• Boat name (29.03.17, the date of the trip)

• Bicycle

• Flowers everywhere

• Boat & canal from the tour we did

• The Bulldog Coffeeshop

• “Anco Hotel,” where we stayed

• Peep Show, the Red Light District

• Brazilian Steakhouse (a random staple of the city)

I used a rainbow of watercolors to recreate the gorgeous sunsets. Micron pens were used for everything else.

This project was long and tedious, and it probably took me close to 4 months of on-and-off working.
