The background is painted with watercolor paints. I cut out circles from magazines and from photocopies of my own artwork. Then I glued them to the paper and doodled around them and on top of them with Prismacolor Markers and Paint Markers. The background is map-like with the blue and green (water and land). I was reading a book called “You are Here: Personal Geographies and Other Maps of the Imagination” which intrigued me.
