It's been so long since I've used a brush (of all varieties, I don't comb my hair either) and it was so much fun to sit down in a group and paint the picture on the screen, see everyone's interpretations etc. The idea of exaggeration of a particular aspect of the building, be it of form or colour, was a good thing to practice for the upcoming project painting, plus it also gives the painting a bit more of an abstract feel. If its so realistic, why not just make it a photograph, and if it's so technical, why not just make it a drawing. Or at least that was my way of thinking about it.
This is my painting:

Obviously its not fantastic. My peers says it looks like Spiderman... except its a building. I keep thinking the building on the bottom left looks like licorice. It was unintentional though, I really was trying to paint a proper picture. But most importantly it was fun and I learned something.
