WINNIPEG SERIES - Cityscapes City Skyline, WPG, Manitoba - Minimalist Art Print @kirschstreetstudio [instagram + Facebook] About the design… The city of Winnipeg may not have many tall buildings, but the ones we do have are extremely recognizable. This is by far one of the most iconic views of Peg City recreated in a simple black and white style. WINNIPEG Series - After spending almost 5 years living abroad, I returned to my hometown of Winnipeg, Manitoba (unwillingly at first) and I have since been here for 2 years which is longer than I have been in one place for all of those 5 years away. My return came after studying abroad for Architecture + Urban Design, combined with my new appreciation and perspective on wpg, this series came to be. I began this art journey and business in Winnipeg so it is only fitting that I have a series that reflects that. All images are originally hand-drawn by me, Kris Kuzdub and edited in Photoshop. Prints replicated from originals. Paper: 100lb matte white cardstock @kirschstreetstudio [instagram + facebook] CONCEPT - After meeting my (standard traveller) goal of visiting 30 countries before I’m 30, I wanted to document the places I’ve seen in a more personal way. Every image drawn has a personal story behind it, I want others to see new places through different perspectives and gain a connection to these places whether they have been there or not. Although each has a personal story to myself; my hope is that you also find a way to connect with each image, maybe you have a story of your own the image brings you to. A little about me... - I’ve always had a passion and excitement for the art of creating; whether it’s drawing or photography through various approaches of design. I studied Urban Design where my passion of exploring and understanding cities and places grew. I developed useful skills for visual problem solving and displaying work, this background of design has translated into the creation of my designs and prints. Coming from this background the designs are inspired by my travels, general interests, and my experiences. I hope you follow along this journey to see what else I’ll be sharing with you over time. @kirschstreetstudio [instagram + facebook]
