Rainy Morning Patrol

A lone patrol over the slippery rooftops.... what might they be searching for?

__

I'm so happy I'm finally done with this one! I've had a huge school project in art class where I investigated and explored aesthetics of fantasy worlds! So basically how amosphere, architecture, form, color and values all play a role in forming an image's certain aesthetic. And this is painting what all my experimenting, sketching and researching led up to! I made a lot of other pictures and sketches, but this is the one where I finally thought I had really captured an interesting and distinct fantasy aesthetic.

When I was painting it I started to make up stories in my head about the city... What kind of people live here? Is it a happy place? What current problems do they face? The answers I got also helped me develop the painting. :>

I'd like to hear your thoughts about this painting! I haven't really painted a lot of rain before, so does it look somewhat realistic? :s And I'm not that happy with the current title, any ideas? ^^' I also realised a bit too late that the zeppelin-ship-thing is about to fly in to the houses.. <.< well, uh, I guess it just...stands still? It's parking perhaps? heeh...


Anyways, thanks for viewing and I hope you enjoy it! ♥
