Creative Tuesdays - Skyscrapers

I decided to remove my original entry as I'm concerned about violating copyright. I saw an image of a tower in downtown Toronto and liked the perspective of it, as did the earlier commenters. However I've decided it looks too similar to the photo and noticed it has copyright. Sorries.

I've snuck in this photo of another take on the theme. Hope you like it, the copyright on this one is mine!  It's acrylic on cardstock (11" x 8.5").

You always seem to have an interesting perspective of an object, and this one is no exception. Love it when it is off-center.

Yes, that is a towering monolith skyscraper of sorts. Totally works. Thank you Christine. I'm amazed, actually, you had time to do yet another contribution--woudl have loved to have seen your older one. You know, if you cite the piece you worked from (like I did for the twisted theme with the feet photo) it's usually totally fine to do your own artistic expression of it. I mean how many people have really been to Mount Rushmore, for example, but use photos to make their own image, or for the matter, pictures of JFK, Marilyn Monroe, any movie star, etc. :)
