This view was taken from one of my trips to the West Coast. The plane would fly from JFK airport and make a round turn towards the west and flew right above the Manhattan island. I always try to take a seat next to the window. I am not afraid of heights, I think I overcame that fear in childhood.
I used the picture I took as a reference to draw out and create my first lithograph. I learned new medium as well as challenged myself to draw size-down skyscrapers looking like abstract shapes.
If you haven't seen an artist Stephen Wiltshire draw views of Rome, Tokio, New York from memory.
