New York Island, a Beautiful Hand Drawn Illustration of NYC's Buildings, Pop Culture and History

Pittsburgh based artist Nathan Doverspike created this amazing hand drawn illustration of the City featuring
landmarks, buildings, pop culture and historical references all mashed up.

My goal was to capture the essence of New York in a fun abstract illustration. The illustration consists of the buildings, pop culture and history of New York from the past, present and future.

Doverspike recently launched a Kickstarter Campaign to get the illustration printed in both black & white and full color screenprints, with backers getting said prints in various sizes based on pledge level.

The campaign has a modest goal of $3,500, and is already 10% of the way there with about a month left to go.
