Proposal The planned concept for the project comes from inspired shapes fused into a landscape setting. It is taking your traditional landscape art and restructuring it with geometric shapes. The variety of colors are symbolic to the positions it would play in a traditional landscape portrait. I wanted to incorporate nature and the different types of outdoor activities that we do in Park City. Hiking, Bike riding etc. The silhouettes of these characters bring out the movement of the piece. The McPolin Farm is also portrayed in the rendering representing the richness of its history and purpose. The design will run across the full space of the tunnel. The colors chosen are to bring a vibrant feel with the bright colors as well as constructed design to help balance the . The goal for this piece is to bring a warm feeling with appreciation to the . I want to bring a fresh feel to the space in modernizing the area with this rendition of an “Urban Landscape”. In this project I will be able to execute it in a professional and timely manner. The materials needed for project will be a few ladders, tape, plastic covers, rolls of paper for over spray. Gloves, respirator paint. I will be able to keep inside the max budget. The project will start by one side each leaving room for the other side to still be accessible to the public. It is projected this project will be completed either before or by the deadline of October 26, 2018 at 5pm. Weather permitting for paint to dry in a timely manner. There are two ways to execute the rendering onto the wall. One is to measure the scale for accuracy in transferring the image to the wall space. The second is to project the image to the wall to make sure the scale proportions are accurate. This technique is also the least time consuming. The main rendering, I am submitting does have a lot of technical lines, straight lines and silhouette imagery. With my experience this project will be executed precisely and to the best of the rendering.
