The inspiration for my image was the first site visit I ever went too. I remember waking up very early to travel with my dad to a site. I was five years old and so excited to be apart of this unique adventure. When I got there I remember the house be very magical and very unique to Muskoka. This painting is not an accurate depiction of the house, however, this is how I perceived it as a young child and still think about it to this day.  I chose this image because I felt like it was a mixture of my own personality and my dads. It shows the small cottage vibes in the forest which I find very intriguing but it also showcases a minimalist aesthetic that has a unique Muskoka room. Overall, this image was inspired by the combination of two personalities.  I am proud of the unique touches / details that I added to it (pie, bedroom, patio furniture). Initially I wasn’t going to add very much detail and just try to get the point across but I had a lot of fun with this assignment and I wanted to make it more characteristic and unique to the inspiration.
