Love this artwork by Bobbie Crews?
"Cityscape Knoxville" was originally done in watercolor and ink. It has a contemporary flavor that speaks of the upscale renovations of downtown Knoxville. Recognizable buildings and sculptures have been arranged in an energetic and colorful composition to portray the energy and excitement of the city. Order a copy at www.bobbiecrews.com
