Body Painting Miami

Body Painting Miami

Miami has been called the Manhattan of the south (along with Atlanta) and the reasons are obvious. Since the middle of the Twentieth Century Miami (and Florida) have seen a tremendous growth in population.

Miami perhaps more than any other American city is truly an International Port. Not only is Miami on the Atlantic Coast (as are other American Cities, e.g. Manhattan, Boston) but Miami has the advantage of being the port of entry of not only the Caribbean but all of South American, Europe, Africa, and beyond. With this infusion of international connectivity it is only natural that Miami has become the Manhattan of the south.

When you look at any city the more that you study it the more it's unique features will become apparent to you. As a skyline artist it is prudent to get familiar with the city that you are interested in and study it well. Walk the streets, meet the people, and visit the shops. The more that you can do to become familiar with that city the better it will manifest it in your work. Miami is no exception to this rule. One of the interesting things about Miami is the number of inlets and channels that form the city. As a skyline artist you can study these areas and utilize them in your work.

Miami being a coastal city, like Manhattan and Chicago, has an advantage of being view with this body of water. It is always advantageous to be on the water for it gives you more advantages to work from. Another advantage that Miami has over the older northern cities is it's youth. The skyline of Miami is a new skyline as are the channels and causeways. The look of the city is young and vigorous and this should be kept in mind when painting the city.

This is a city full of art and artists and there are galleries everywhere with painting of this great city. I have noticed that the best way to really make Miami look good is to include boats and harbors in the skyline paintings. Miami has an international reputation for its boating and sports facilities. Most of the major ocean liners are home-based out of Miami, so it is wise to keep nautical themes in mind when you do a painting of Miami. Miami has a lot to offer both artistically and socially, be prudent and take time to become familiar with this great city
