Complex assignment projects appeal to me. I've had enough of them throughout my career so that if enough time goes by after the completion of one, I get to hankering to take on another. Earlier this year I posted another artwork from the same project for which the artwork below was completed in late January of this year. Both artworks are now installed in the Control Building visitors' area at the Skagit County PUD Judy Reservoir Water Treatment Plant. The installation is open to visitors so if you'd like to see a 7-foot version of this map on the wall there, you may schedule a visit and a tour of the facility!
I used Rapidograph pens and watercolor for this illustrated map showing where all the water comes from for Judy Reservoir. My work began with a tour of the water treatment facility. I took home a collection of survey maps and photos I took during the tour. To be honest, I was overwhelmed; where on earth would I start? This map came to me first. The original is about 10"x14".
