The biggest challenge while skating at Millennium Park is deciding what to focus on: The soaring skyline with glowing city lights, the illuminating Bean with it's warped and multiple reflections of the city, or ice skating? After skating, I decided to capture it all by painting. It was a great lesson on where to add lights and darks to make the ice appear slippery and cold.
