Project Statement:
State Street’s usual hustle and bustle halts as hundreds of people stand on the blacktop, all looking towards the towering blue spruce that shoots 50 feet into the freezing sky. The multicolored lights twinkle against the darkness of night, competing with the stars to capture the beauty of winter. Brown shrubbery against the rainbow luminosity, bringing warmth into the bitter cold.
This piece is part of my Seasons in Chicago series and happened to open my eyes to the wonders of architectural illustration. The creation process began with a traditional sketch, moved to digital linework, was traced and painted with gouache, scanned into Lightroom and Photoshop, and finally sandwiched all together while using digital paint to touch up and brighten!

Artist Statement:
Hi there, I’m Anabelle :) I have always been the quiet kid who keeps to herself and doodles her daydreams on the margins of notepads, looking forward to art class every day of the week. Since childhood, I’ve experimented with a plethora of media and styles, trying to make sense of all the jumble that fuels my creativity. Caught between realism and stylized illustration, I’m continuing to push my boundaries and work with techniques I’ve yet to conquer or even attempt. It’s a big wide world out there- who knows what else will capture my attention next! While I’ve found strengths along my journey of exploring and developing art, I can't wait to see what else the creative path ahead of me has in store.
