My little point-and-shoot and I were out in midtown, and could not help but notice all of the cool ways the light reflects off of the wetness...

Old School: Sydney Opera House
Colored pencil on white paper, approx 24 x 7 in. I had to write three extensive papers about Australia in high school, and all of the thousands of times I saw pictures of the opera house convinced me that I had to draw it. I referenced about three different photos for this, and I think I did it in 11th grade.

Epic Subway Love
At over 4 feet tall, this is one of the biggest pieces I've ever made, and probably also one of the most technically detailed. This colored pencil hand drawn and lettered subway map is to scale, and as long as you're not leaving Manhattan, a functional replacement for the MTA's version. I like maps, and I love the subway, so I thought this would be a good first adventure into the world of map-making.

Cuddly Cooling Towers
I grew up within sight of a nuclear power plant, and have always admired the shape of the massive cooling towers. It was one of those things that was on my "list of things I need to draw someday" until junior year of college. We got an assignment in Illustration I to "explain how something works." Perfect! Nuclear power creation for kids! Colored pencil on purple paper, approx 5 x 15 in.
Rocks, Rocks, and More Rocks
This is a website I built to display the sketchbook I kept and some of my favorite pictures from our vacation out west in the summer of 08: http://amandageisinger.com/trip/outwest.html
And I just really love this photo; the slot canyon was my very favorite part of the trip, and this gives you something of an idea what it was like to actually be in it:
