Solution: Transforming Artwork into a Nighttime Masterpiece

Michael, working closely with Stringfellow P&D, undertook the challenge of transforming Vasily Vasilenko’s stunning watercolor artwork into a captivating nightscape. The objective was to illustrate how strategically placed and calibrated lighting would enhance the community’s nighttime ambiance without overpowering the natural beauty of the Florida landscape or dimming the brilliance of the night stars.

Crafting a Magical Nightscape

The conversion process required meticulous attention to detail and a deep understanding of lighting principles. Michael skillfully modified the artwork to depict the community at night, infusing it with a warm, welcoming, and magical atmosphere. The placement of individual windows in homes, community centers, and pools illuminated the night scene, creating a sense of life and vibrancy. Street lamps and enchanting lightning bugs gracefully weaved throughout the artwork, adding a touch of whimsy to the composition.

Capturing the Transition from Farmland to Urban Development

In line with the vision for the community, the lighting in the artwork was carefully orchestrated to showcase a gradual transition from farmland to suburban and finally to urban development. This thoughtful progression was reflected in the artwork, with the lighting softly and gradually growing from left to right, mirroring the evolution of the community itself.

Collaboration and Speedy Design Submission

Close collaboration between Michael and Stringfellow P&D played a pivotal role in the project’s success. The tight deadline necessitated swift action, and Michael rose to the occasion, delivering a beautifully transformed design within 24 hours. This design was instrumental in the final winning proposal for the low-impact lighting community in Groveland.
